520 |a The Federally sponsored regional training workshops for adult education personnel in cultural/ethnic understanding were designed to increase the level of awareness of cultural/ethnic differences. A training design was developed following an analysis of the Culturally Oriented Teacher Education Materials developed by the Phelps-Stokes Fund, a review of literature and projects related to ethnic/cultural training, and site visits to six regional areas. Some issues identified in regional meetings were: part-time status of adult education positions, recruitment of target minorities, different socioeconomic factors within minority groups, poor whites as a minority group, lack of information about diverse cultures, and bi-cultural education versus acculturation. Workshops were held in Lansing, Michigan; San Antonio, Texas; Kansas City, Missouri; Denver, Colorado; San Francisco, California; and Seattle, Washington. A major part of the training design focused on the use of telecommunication as a training tool for raising cultural awareness. The training experience clearly indicated that a serious gap exists in cultural awareness for adult education personnel. Followup activities and ongoing programing were viewed as particularly important due to the large numbers of part-time adult education staff and the high turnover. (EA)
