  1. See A. L. Hyer and R. M. McClure, ‘New Patterns of Teacher Tasks and Their Implications’,New Patterns of Teacher Education and Tasks: General Analyses, Paris, Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, 1974. This chapter is a summary analysis of discussions and paters at an experts' meeting held at the Château de la Muette, Paris, March 26–27 1974. The analysis is based largely on papers included in two other 1974 OECD publications on teacher roles and policies in OECD Member States,The Teacher and Educational Change: A New Role, Vol. I, andRecent Trends in Teacher Recrutment, Vol. II.

Louise Miller, ‘A Need for Competency-Based Teacher Education for Native Americans’,Multi-Cultural Education through Competency-Based Teacher Education, Washington, D.C., American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, 1974. This publication is the result of a project under the Commission on Multi-Cultural Education of the AACTE, Chaired by James Kelly, Dean of the School of Education, University of Pittsburgh, which recently issued a policy statement: ‘No One Model American’. This statement suggests, in part, that ‘Multi-cultural education programs for teachers are more than special courses or special learning experiences grafted onto the standard program. The commitment to cultural pluralism must permeate all areas of the educational experience provided for prospective teachers’,The Journal of Teacher Education of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, Vol. 24, No. 4, Winter 1973, p. 264–5.
