Abstract

The Northern Cross-Cultural Education Symposium was held at the University of Alaska on November 7-9, 1973. It was sponsored by the Alaska Educational Program for Intercultural Communication (AEPIC) to promote cooperation and communication between Canadian and Alaskan educators. Specific objectives were to: (1) identify and solicit the participation of prominent educators; (2) present educators' works delineating both needs and solution designs; (3) determine a hierarchy of needs as identified by the participants; (4) produce a compendium of symposium papers for field-based educators; and (5) produce a paper of conceptual, solution-design for cross cultural education in the future. Formal presentations were made by 40 conference participants; 30 of these were assembled for this publication. The papers are divided into 4 major groups: special topics, university projects, government programs, and non-government programs. The appendices list participants, and briefly explain their reactions and suggestions. (KM)
