Description

Guides, books, notes, records used for educating teachers with regard to i.t.a. newsletters, books, journals, manuals, notes, cards, booklets, published reports, cassettes, readers, course notes, wordlists, Parents' Kit, Speech Readers, i.t.a. programme books, Augmented Roman Alphabet, Teachers' Packs, information regarding i.t.a. publications. All used for the education of teachers in i.t.a. methods and philosophy - for young readers, remedial and adult non-readers.

The titles have been transcribed as closely as possible to the original text, however as this was not done on an ita typewriter, many of the ita book titles will appear 'mispelt' according to the practices of the initial teaching alphabet. This being the case, it is always best to consult the records themselves for the correct typeography and spelling of the words. This applies also to the writers' names, which have been transcribed herein as starting with with capital letters, even though this is not usually the case on the actual publication. It is also worth noting here that according to Arlie Hargreaves, that on official documents, the ita Association (Australia) preferred to transcribe names using traditional orthography.
