Designed to help articulate vocational education student progress from one level of training to another and to employment, this drafting guide lists competencies for a core curriculum prerequisite to all drafting areas and competencies for machine, architectural, and civil drafting. The format for each competency is task statement, list of conditions and limitations for performance, and criteria of acceptable performance. In a separate section, enabling tasks (activities necessary for developing a job skill) are listed for each competency with the suggestion that they may become daily or weekly lesson plans. A section on student outcomes contains a table correlating twenty-three job titles with the competency lists and educational requirements, and tables correlating the competencies with high school credit and advanced college placement information (specifically for Nebraska). Also included are a glossary of terms and two forms: student progress chart and record of individual student skill achievement. (A procedures manual describing the process used to develop the competency lists and providing suggestions for adapting the materials to local situations is available separately, as are parallel competency lists for other curriculum areas--see note.)
