This document contains descriptions of projects in guidance, physical education and social studies which were developed by participants in workshops for nondiscriminatory curriculum development training. Projects and appendices in the guidance section include plans for field trips and open houses in nontraditional careers for men and women; for revision of a high school planning guide to meet sex-fair regulations; and for computing of new sex-free norms for an aptitude test. Physical education studies include: a survey of student interest in sports, looking toward the establishment of an intramural sports program; a workshop for community recreational personnel and school staff in the equal education laws; coeducational units in new sports areas, such as wrestling, square dancing, slimnastics and weight training; and a coeducational elementary obstacle course unit. Among the social studies projects listed are: an inservice workshop for staff, a consciousness raising unit for middle and high school students; a local history research project involving women as subjects; and a study of women in history, utilizing biography and an enactment of the Susan B. Anthony trial. (Author/KR)
