Abstract	Individualized, competency-based curriculum materials were developed for a course on Principles of Technology, Units 1-6. New and updated curriculum materials in Drafting and Electronics and the Principles of Technology units were pilot tested in area vocational center settings in Illinois. A computer maintenance program was also developed but not implemented due to lack of enrollment. Progress was made in program articulation between area vocational centers and all feeder schools as well as the community colleges. Task listings for automated manufacturing (electromechanical technicians) were developed; curriculum materials will be further developed during the following year. Conclusions indicated (1) a need for articulation, (2) "turf protection" as a barrier to effective articulation, (3) a need for support from business and industry, and (4) a need for better access to top students. (Appendixes, amounting to over one-half of the report, include results of a survey of student educational and career interests, a sample learning guide for unit 6 of the Principles of Technology program, a summary of the pilot test of Principles of Technology, and task listings for automated manufacturing electro-mechanical technology).
