Occupational Orientation: Health Occupations. Experimental Curriculum Materials.
Illinois State Office of Education, Springfield.
These experimental curriculum materials for one of five clusters developed for the occupational program in Illinois include a series of learning activity packages (LAPs) designed to acquaint the student with the wide range of occupational choices available in the health occupations field. The 28 LAPs, each with a different occupation focus, are grouped under seven categories: (1) Health Occupations (General), (2) Medical, Dental and Nursing Occupations, (3) Related Health Specialties, (4) Physical, Mental, and Social Rehabilitation Occupations, (5) Clinical Laboratory and Related Technical Occupations, (6) Environmental and Public Health Occupations, and (7) Administrative, Business, and Clerical Occupations. Each LAP identifies the category, the focus, the activity, and the objective. It lists the equipment, supplies, and forms needed, states the rationale, and describes the suggested procedure and alternate activities. The activities are designed to give students the opportunity to research, observe, and gain hands-on experience in representative jobs within the career field. This document contains the Student Awareness/Attitude Inventory, and guidelines for developing pre-post assessment tests. Student forms (Resource Person Information Sheet, Field Trip Observation Form, Interview Questions, Observation/Interview Form) and lists of 34 references and 8l addresses for obtaining resources are appended.
