This handbook on locally directed evaluation (LDE) is designed as a practical guide for vocational and other school administrators to use in initiating or improving evaluation activities carried out at the local level. It is divided into seven sections. Each section includes an evaluation instrument, the purpose of the evaluation activity, and suggested procedures for its use. The first LDE form is a 32-item vocational teacher evaluation. A 23-item instructional program evaluation is provided in section 2. An initial follow-up survey of former vocational students and an employer follow-up survey are included in sections 3-4. The fifth LDE form presented covers vocational counselor evaluation. An instrument for evaluating guidance counseling and counseling programs constitutes section 6, and section 7 includes a 48-item vocational administrator evaluation instrument. A final note on the use of evaluation results follows. (MN)
