NATIONAL UNIVERSITY EXTENSION ASSOCIATION (NUEA): Part Two

     RECORDS, 1950-1972

     31 Boxes, (15.5 linear feet)

 

 

Background Sketch

 

     This collection supplements Part One of NUEA.  It includes

additional general records and manuals on Project Head Start, and some

files on the Job Corps Driver Education Training program.   The bulk

of materials, including the photographs, are of the federally funded

Teacher Trainer Institutes, administered for the U.S. Office of

Education by the NUEA, and held in various colleges and universities

around the country. 

 

     For a more complete description of NUEA see National University

Extension Association (NUEA): Part One.

    

Description

 

     The records are divided into four parts:

                    General records

                    U.S. Office of Education, Adult Basic

                         Education, Teacher Trainer Institutes

                    Manuals and Published Materials

                    Photographs

 

    

     Correspondence, memoranda and reports comprise the bulk of

records.  There are also numerous lists of participants, professional

resources and materials.

 

     General records are filed by alphabetically under the following

types:

                    General Business

                    Committees

                    Divisions

                    Conferences

                    Project Head Start

                    Job Corps Driver Education Training

                    Miscellaneous

 

     The Teacher Trainer Institute material is filed by year.  Within

each year, material is filed alphabetically.  For 1966 and 1967 there

are two divisions: general records and those of specific regional

institutes.

 

     For related material in the Arents Library adult education

collections, see also National Association of Public School Adult

Educators (NAPSAE).
