This course content guide was developed in accordance with the Standards for Accreditation of Public Schools adopted by the Arkansas State Board of Education. The guide is offered as a framework upon which a curriculum can be built. Within the subject area and at each grade level, the content guide identifies skills at three instructional levels: basic, developmental, and extensions. The basic skills are those skills that all students must master and upon which the minimum performance test items are based. Extensions are suggested for those learners who have mastered the required basic and recommended developmental skills. Extensions stress the higher order thinking, processing, and problem-solving skills. These extensions suggest ways for the teacher to broaden student learning on a grade level without introducing more basic skills from subsequent grade levels. This guide outlines three courses: Exploratory Coordinated Career Education, and Coordinated Career Education I and II. Exploratory Coordinated Career Education includes the following topics: orientation and self-development, career exploration (interest areas and vocational assessment and career planning), and seeking employment. The following skills are identified for Coordinated Career Education I: leadership development; employment (seeking and maintaining employment, on-the-job competencies, wages and fringe benefits, career planning); personal finances; and civic and social responsibilities. Additional skills are identified for these topics for Coordinated Career Education II. (KC)
