Download or read book Education in the 80 s vocational Education written by Nancy K. Christian and published by National Education Assn. This book was released on 1982-01-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of 13 articles by vocational educators discusses issues that confront vocational education in the 1980s. It is designed for the practicing vocational teacher and for persons who are enrolled in preservice vocational education courses. Two major themes running through the papers are: (1) the need to keep existing vocational education programs current with the changing requirements and new technology of the work setting; and (2) to improve articulation between secondary and postsecondary vocational programs in order to serve the needs of workers for entry-level education and for retraining throughout life. Topics covered in the papers include teacher training; professionalism; bridging the gap between general and vocational education; leadership; vocational education to meet the needs of minority groups; special students; youth unemployment; learning styles; career guidance and job placement; cooperative work experiences; youth organizations; energy expectations of the future; and adapting human resources to changing technology. Most of the articles are written by practicing vocational classroom teachers. A list of the contributors and their credentials is included in the book. (KC)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In February 1979, I wrote to the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation seeking sup port for the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies to embark on a policy oriented program in vocational education. The reason for the request, which was generously granted by the foundation, was stated as follows: The federal program on vocational education dates from World War I. Impor tant changes were made in later legislation in 1963 and 1976, affecting the pro grams conducted by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The recently enacted Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) of the Department of Labor has brought large federal support to efforts to reduce unemployment, especially for youth, by providing preparatory training. It may be an understatement to report that the programs of these two government departments have lacked adequate coordination in Washington or in the field. Certainly there is a long way to go in improving both policy and program, and an opportunity presents itself in preparing the policies to be proposed to the Con gress when the vocational education program next comes up for reconsideration in 1980 and 1981. Responsibility for preparing the administration's position and recom mendations lies with the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation of HEW, Michael O'Keefe.

Book excerpt: The essays in this collection are designed to provide an overview of the most pressing issues and ideas with which English teachers contend today and will contend in the near future. The contributors, 22 English teachers and educators, have attempted to view change in a sufficiently broad perspective to enable them to make responsible predictions about the 1980s, taking into account the social and economic variables that will necessarily affect the United States during this time. Titles of the essays reflect concerns for the following topics: (1) writing and the English curriculum; (2) literature study in the 1980s; (3) language and the English curriculum; (4) holonomic knowing (a very generalized model of holistic learning); (5) oral English and the literacy imperative; (6) reading and the teaching of English; (7) the basics in the 1980s; (8) English in the elementary and middle schools; (9) the training of English teachers in the 1980s; (10) the media, media literacy, and the English curriculum; (11) computer-assisted English instruction; (12) English as a second language in the 1980s; (13) English and vocational education; (14) dealing with sexual stereotypes; (15) English for minority groups, for the gifted and talented, and for the handicapped; and (16) needed research in the teaching of English.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using 60 tables and 60 figures, this report depicts vocational education in the United States as it has evolved over two decades, 1969 to 1990. The report examines patterns of program participation, selected student outcomes, and the characteristics of teachers in both secondary and postsecondary vocational education. It also provides some information on the academic curriculum. Most of the information is presented for single points in time, but some time series data are also reported. Data for the report were taken from many of the large national data systems supported by the National Center for Education Statistics. A few highlights of the report are the following: (1) in the high school senior class of 1987, 98 percent of all public high school graduates completed at least one course in vocational education during the high school years, with 90 percent of those students taking courses preparing them for specific occupations; (2) students with disabilities were more likely than students without disabilities to be heavy concentrators in vocational education; (3) about 62 percent of students in 1982 attended at least one postsecondary institution in 1984; (3) the number of high school seniors taking vocational courses in 1980 was 11 percent higher than the number taking such courses in 1972; (4) vocational and nonvocational teachers tended to have similar characteristics; and (5) about 6 percent of the United States' population of 18- to 34-year-olds was enrolled in postsecondary vocational courses in 1990. The report contains a glossary and appendixes with 60 tables of standard errors for the tables and data sources and technical notes. (KC)
