Included as appendices are a complete set of the instructional materials used in the 1980 academic year, a sample of the instructional materials used during the first year of the program (1975), a copy of the initial program proposal, the statements of the 1975 and 1980 program objectives, and a copy of a survey questionnaire sent in 1978 to students who had participated in the program.
