Peterson, Marla; And Others
The purpose of the Enrichment of Teacher and Counselor Competencies in Career Education Project (ETC Project) was to develop, evaluate, and disseminate: (1) Career Education Curriculum guides which result in the integration of positive values and attitudes toward work, self-awareness, and development of decision making skills; and awareness of occupational opportunities; (2) sample teaching learning modules by fusing and coordinating academic and occupation concepts and utilizing multimedia instructional tools; (3) a design of K-6 career education instructional system adaptable to any elementary instructional program. The project consisted of five phases: (1) search, (2) formulation of objectives, (3) curriculum guides, (4) field testing, and (5) dissemination and utilization. A discussion of the evaluation of the project includes the evaluation instruments. The survey of the findings covers the areas of construct and content validity, administrative feasibility and product usability, and student learning gain. The project's summaries and recommendations are discussed briefly and also the ETC staff impact on career education through various related activities. Appendixes include a master index of infusion strategy content and a 94-page third party evaluation of the project. (Author/BP)
