The Industrial Arts Section focused attention during the 1972 fiscal year on career education, the improvement of instruction, and industrial arts growth in Arizona. This annual report outlines accomplishments in each area: development, promotion, and implementation of the career education concept; improvement of instruction through improving the teaching-learning situation, teacher growth and development, curriculum development, public relations activities, and research; and growth by increases in student enrollments, number of schools offering industrial arts education, and innovative programs. However, the number of industrial arts teachers did not increase sufficiently to keep pace with enrollment and program increases. (MF)
