An Evaluation of Oklahoma's Exemplary Vocational Education and Occupational Orientation Program, Tulsa Public Schools--1971-1972. Interim Evaluation Report.
Jorgenson, Elaine; And Others
This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the second year of the Exemplary Comprehensive Occupational Orientation and Vocational Program in the Tulsa, Oklahoma Public Schools. Data were obtained through a variety of student tests, teacher quarterly reports, interviews with administrators, and questionnaire responses. Findings obtained were: (1) At the elementary level, the special interest clubs program appears to have been successful, (2) Significant gains were made from pre- to post-test in regard to occupational awareness, (3) The hands-on experience program in the junior high curriculum proved to be effective, (4) Students enrolled in cluster courses at the tenth grade level progressed significantly, (5) The addition of counselors and a coordinator at each level seemed to have strengthened the operation of the program, and (6) Indications are that the program has prompted teachers to become more innovative in program planning and implementation strategies. Recommendations are included. (Author/SN)
