Safety in the Industrial Arts Classroom as Perceived by Industrial Arts Teachers and Administrators.
Petty, Gregory C.; Pierce, Randal
A study was conducted to determine if industrial arts teachers and their administrators view perceived safety training needs differently. The Safety Training Needs Survey, developed at the University of Tennessee, was mailed to a randomly selected sample of 145 industrial arts teachers and their administrators in Tennessee. Replies were received from 62 teachers (43 percent) and 89 administrators (61 percent). Data were analyzed using a one-way multivariate analysis of variance. The results revealed no differences between the groups of teachers and administrators in their perception of safety training needs. Both groups share a perceived high need for safety training. The study concluded that teacher educators should consider this identified need for safety training when planning content for preservice or inservice education for industrial arts teachers. (KC)
