Project to produce and test modern mathematics textbooks and 
conduct teacher training activities in ten English-speaking African 
countries - Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ghana, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, 
Tanzania, Zambia, Ethiopia, and Malawi.  The Education Development Center 
(EDC) will implement the project.
	The project will conduct an 8-week workshop in Mombasa, Kenya, 
for 60 U.S. consultants and host country representatives to produce 
texts, teachers' guides, and tests for primary and secondary schools. EDC 
will publish and distribute the texts for experimental testing in an 
average of 30 classes and/or teacher training institutes in each country. 
A maximum of 140 elementary and secondary school teachers will be trained 
to use the materials in classroom instruction.  Students who have 
completed modern mathematics courses will be tested in order to assess 
the effectiveness of the materials.  When necessary, EDC will also 
provide consultation to host governments on planning wide-scale adoption 
or adaptation of the modern mathematics curricula developed by the project.
