Ellington, Henry Educational Resources Foreign Countries Independent Study Individualized Instruction Learning Resources Centers Library Administration Postsecondary Education Resource Centers Resource Materials Student Characteristics Teacher Role The concepts of resources, resources centers, and resource-based learning and their interrelationships are described and the role of resources centers in both student-centered and teacher/institution-centered educational systems is examined.
