Development

The National Forage Curriculum is being developed by three groups; a Core Group, a Regional Advisors Group and a Topic Experts Group.

The Core Group will provide the overall project development leadership involving the instructional design, graphic design, and journalistic editing.  All instructional segments will be reviewed by this team, working with the regional and topic experts groups.

The Regional Advisors Group will provide review of topic materials to assure that the significant regional differences of the U.S. are considered and included in the instructional materials.

The Topic Experts Group will provide the initial drafts of topic instructional materials according to the instructional design template provided by the Core Group.  Those interested in providing ideas, corrections, or materials are encouraged to contact the principal investigator.

Segment Authors: D.B. Hannaway, K.J. Hannaway, M. Panciera, S. Fransen, M. Hall, P. Shuler, and P. Hoagland.
