Abstract: This article summarizes the
authors' observations derived over the
course of 3 years of research and
experimentation with competency
based instruction. While the intent of
this project has been the development
of a prototype graduate level training
model to prepare curriculum
consultants for exceptional children,
the model, processes, and experiences
are generalizable to the range of
training needs in special education.
The primary goals of the project
involve (a) the establishment of an
empirical basis for the identification of
competencies and (b) the design of
instructional modules as the principal
mode of training. The observations
reported here are categorized into four
areas of concern: developmental
processes, module features, student
response, and program concerns.
