Auburn Univ., AL. Dept. of Vocational and Adult Education.
Developed at Auburn University, Alabama, and based on Adult Performance Level (APL) research conducted at the University of Texas, the two teaching modules for adult career education in this curriculum guide are for the health and for the consumer economics curriculum areas. Focus is on development of basic skills in communication, problem solving, and interpersonal relationships. The format for each module is the same: performance objectives broken down into tasks followed by suggested instructor activities, learner activities, and resources for each task. Suggested advanced tasks for certain performance objectives are also included in each module along with a bibliography for suggested resources not included under the individual tasks. The instructional goal stated for the consumer economics module is to manage a family economy and to demonstrate an awareness of sound purchasing practices. It contains 19 performance objectives. The instructional goal stated for the health module is to insure good mental and physical health for the individual and the family. Material is organized around nine performance objectives. (HD)
