This document discusses the work of a consortium of interested producers and users of instructional materials, who worked on a project aimed at producing short films dealing with small group teaching, and developing general guidelines for the production and evaluation of visual stimulus material which would be suitable for staff development purposes. Each member of the group was asked to produce a half-hour videotape dealing with small group teaching and copies were distributed among members. The group then met to consider all the materials produced, select the most effective, and formulate evaluation and production guidelines. While a consensus was not reached, several important principles were identified. Focus of the consortium shifted after two meetings to the encouragement of the production of a wider range of materials and facilitating training programs for workshop leaders. Recommendations suggest four future concerns for consortium work. (JEG)
