Project Women: In a Man's World of Work: A Guide for School Counselors.
Carr, Ralph T.; And Others
This exemplary career education program for 100 girls in Grades 10 and 11 at five Maine high schools aims at equalizing career opportunities for women and encouraging student involvement in guidance programs. The ten steps taken to develop and implement "Project Women--In a Man's World of Work" included: (1) preliminary program planning among school counselors, (2) a commitment from school counselors and administrators, (3) the identification of program objectives, (4) developing an operational schedule for the project, (5) developing and administering a vocational interest survey, (6) inservice training as guidance aides for selected students, (7) developing resource lists, (8) a seminar with resource specialists, (9) an outside evaluation, and (10) dissemination activities. Ten traditionally male-oriented career categories were selected as the focus for the project: (1) veterinarian, (2) communications, (3) counseling, (4) military, (5) recreation director, (6) bookkeeping and accounting, (7) computer programer, (8) police, (9) lawyer, and (10) forest service.
