Revised Curriculum for the Vocational Experiences Classes. Grade 9. Catalog No. 13.498.
Nunn, Tony; And Others
Designed for ninth grade disadvantaged and educable mentally handicapped students for occupational orientation and exploration, this revised curriculum guide consists of eight sections, five of which incorporate simulation units to provide hands-on experience. The sections are: Orientation to the School; Orientation to Self in Relation to the World of Work; Preparing for the World of Work; Job Clusters and the Restaurant Unit; Getting a Job and Assembly Work Unit; Money and Banking Unit; Motel and Transportation Units; and Consumer and Career Grocery Unit. Each section includes rationale, objectives, recommended teaching-learning evaluation strategies, and a list of resources. The simulation units contain specific suggestions for day-to-day activities; for example, in the restaurant unit, students discuss the requirements of a number of restaurant jobs, receive a visit from a local restaurant manager, practice duties required of restaurant personnel, visit a restaurant, discuss the field trip, and evaluate the unit. Student evaluation questionnaires (reactions to a field trip, opinions of various duties connected with a particular occupation) are included. (LMS)
