To Examine and Plan for Occupational Requisites and Employment (Project EXPLORE). Final Evaluation Report, 1993-94. OER Report.
Choonoo, John
To Examine and Plan for Occupational Requisites and Employment (Project EXPLORE) was an Elementary and Secondary Education Act Title VII-funded program in its fifth and final year at Long Island City and Aviation High Schools in Queens (New York). Project EXPLORE served 510 mainly Spanish-, Korean-, Vietnamese-, Mandarin-, and Cantonese-speaking students of limited English proficiency with fewer than 2 years in English-speaking schools. Students received instruction in English as a second language (ESL) and native language arts, as well as support services including curriculum development, staff development, and parent involvement activities. The project met its ESL objectives and almost all others, although one parent involvement objective could not be evaluated. The development of curriculum materials was a particularly effective component, highlighted by a Chinese science review. Nine tables present evaluation findings. Two appendixes describe instructional materials and class schedules. (Author/SLD)
