This directory of resources was developed to present current information about teaching techniques, instructional materials, and human resources to enhance elementary and secondary basic skills instruction. The guides' five units cover basic skills, English and language arts, mathematics, reading, and writing. Each unit contains abstracts of selected documents, descriptions of successful local and national basic skills programs, abstracts of nonprint teacher training materials, descriptions of professional organizations, and a list of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction staff members who have worked in basic skills. Each listing describes the organization or product, its audience, and possible uses. The address, telephone number, and title of the contact person for each service or program cited are included. (JD)
