This competency-based preservice home economics teacher education module on utilizing resources for clothing and textiles is the second in a set of two modules on textiles and clothing in economically depressed areas. (This set is part of a larger set of sixty-seven modules on the Management Approach to Teaching Consumer and Homemaking Education [MATCHE]--see CE 019 901-967.) Following a module objective and overview, three units of instruction are presented: (1) identifying clothing resources (with lessons on sources of clothing and personal resources), (2) utilizing clothing resources (with lessons on buying clothing to meet needs and knowing when to buy), and (3) extending garment life (with lessons on proper maintenance and alterations). Each unit includes an objective, overview, and progress test. Lessons contain narrative summaries, suggested activities, and resources (readings). A module pre/posttest (with answer key) concludes the document. (Workshop proceedings relating to the development of these modules are available in the ERIC system as CE 019 896-899; also available is a module on utilizing FHA-HERO as an instructional strategy to expand and strengthen the home economics instructional programs [CE 019 900].)
