Career Resource Center: A "Pre-K to Adult" Model for Career Development. Final Report.
Moskowitz, Irving
The Hackensack Career Development Center is a pilot project designed to: (1) make career development learning activities an integral part of the school curriculum from pre-kindergarten through adult education, (2) provide a setting in which experimentation with and evaluation of such activities may be carried on, and (3) offer students and graduates assistance in finding desired and/or suitable employment. In the second year of the Center's operation, approximately 15 continuing programs and more than 400 intra-curricular activities have been planned and/or conducted by the staff. The continuing programs are based upon a pre-established curriculum guide and, in most cases, are implemented over a prolonged period, such as all or most of the school year. The intra-curricular activities are short-term projects planned mutually by one of the school/industry coordinators and a classroom teacher in response to the teacher's request for a career development activity to relate to his course work. A major accomplishment of the second year of operation has been the development and pilot of a formative evaluation system. Other accomplishments and recommendations are discussed. (SB)
