This page is for those who want yet further information about Precision Teaching, especially concerning implementations of Precision Teaching or
information on research conducted using the Standard Celeration Chart (previously called the Standard Behavior Chart or the Standard Change Chart).
You should already have visited www.celeration.org.
Initial postings hereinbelow concern old implementations of Precision Teaching which were created, succeeded quite well, and, in the sad way of the world, disappeared nonetheless. These old projects are of continuing interest, as they met needs which are still with us, and thus remain worthy of emulation.
The catch-phrase "Precision Teaching" covers a growing number of practices and discoveries over thirty-nine years
(taking 1964 as our starting date), and occasional improvements in technical vocabulary as well. The dates of
the writings therefore assume particular importance. Though this point is obvious, keep in mind that earlier practitioners
and researchers did not have the benefit of what later researchers and practitioners developed or discovered.
STUDIES AND OTHER WRITINGS
This presently comes under the rubric of Previews of Coming Attractions. This will take a considerable while longer to complete satisfactorily.
NOTE: The portion of Blueprint set out here is just a small fraction of the original. The original is in three pdf files totaling about 12 megabytes, which may take all night to transfer. If you want it, write to Blueprint@celeration.net.
It's yours for free, but you have to be able to accept it over the "net," as there is no ability to "burn" a CD here.
