Career Education. Administrators and Counselors Implementation Model. Module IV--Planning. (4.1) Develop Plans for Curriculum Preparation and Infusion.

Overview & Synopsis

Part of a 13-volume series designed to be used as a group inservice or a self-learning system to train school administrators and counselors for their role in career education, this first section (4.1) of module 4 (Planning) is designed to assist principals and other school administrators to develop plans for curriculum preparation and infusion of career education. (The other three sections of module 4 deal with planning for resource allocation, for scheduling, and for community involvement. Module 4 is one of six modules for administrators and four for counselors developed in Phase IV of a five-phase career education project in Hawaii. The first two are common while the balance are specific to either counselors or administrators.) Module 4.1 contains three lessons with activities and readings. Lesson 1 is concerned with the scope and sequence of the curriculum planning and how administrators can utilize it; a portion is devoted to assisting teachers to participate in the school level planning of career education activities. In Lesson 2 five examples are presented to illustrate the infusion concept and process. Issues addressed in Lesson 3 include sex role stereotypes, values determination, sex stereotypes in the classroom, sex discrimination in schools, teacher attitudes and values, and the role of values in career education. A bibliography of periodical literature on values in career education is included. (TA)
