ABSTRACT:
As part of an effort to help coordinate information flow (and thus, future research activities), this fourth Inventory of Projects and Activities
in Reading and English continues to report (1) action programs seeking
to exploit advances in linguistic science and related fields, (2) projects
seeking to explore ways of handling the special language problems of speakers
of nonstandard varieties of English, (3) school-based comparative studies,
many of which deal with methods, materials, and test instruments used
in teaching beginning and remedial reading, (4) studies of language arts
and English curricula with a view to modification or revision, (5) materials
and test construction projects, and (6) projects to exploit audiovisual
aids. Desired information can be retrieved by state, level of instruction,
topic, and an alphabetical listing of investigators. Appended are the
TENL Directory of Information Sources and a listing of reading programs
recently funded by Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education
Act. (HS)
