Evaluation System Model for the Basic Functions of Vocational Education in California: A Computer Based Evaluation System for Vocational Education.
Branch, Robert L.
A computerized model was developed to evaluate local vocational education programs in relation to the various functions of vocational education. A data base was generated using the local school districts' information and the output was designed for local self-evaluation use in further planning and review of the overall vocational education plan. Data were collected for curriculum objectives, student needs, and job market information. The evaluation model is in the form of a computer printout by individual vocational programs and by each function within a program. The model offers an unbiased view of a vocational program as it is actually functioning, notes recommended courses of action for areas of weakness, and provides an accurate job market analysis. Appendixes contain data collection forms, detail procedures for gathering population needs data and job market analyses, the computer programs, and sample evaluation printouts. The system's function and integrity were verified using segmented dummy data and actual data from one high school. The model is applicable to high school districts, community colleges, and regional occupation programs/centers in California. (MF)
