Abstract	The Content Area Reading Project was designed to provide teachers in junior high schools and adult basic education classes with inservice workshops and on-site consultant assistance in content area reading methods. Chapter one of this report discusses the need for such a project and outlines the procedures used in developing it. In chapter two, the inservice training model used and evaluated in the project is presented. Chapter three outlines the step-by-step diagnostic teaching model by means of which project participants were taught the administration and uses of informal diagnostic procedures. Chapter four describes the seven content strands that made up the content component of the workshops: diagnosis, linguistic differences, motivation, organization for instruction, reading skills, selection of materials, and evaluation. Chapter five reports the results of the project in terms of changes in attitude and skills in experimental and comparison groups. Chapter six summarizes the project and presents conclusions and recommendations for future work with inservice content area reading programs. Numerous tables are included in the report. (GW)
