Projects in Progress--FY 1984: A Report for the Coordinating Committee on Research in Vocational Education.

Overview & Synopsis

This seventh annual compilation presents resumes of ongoing projects in career education, vocational education, and education and work. These contract and grant awards are administered by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Vocational and Adult Education, National Institute of Education, Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, and National Commission for Employment Policy. These agencies form the Coordinating Committee on Research in Vocational Education. Also included in this publication are projects administered by the National Center for Education Statistics and U.S. Department of Labor. The publication is organized in three sections. Section 1 includes descriptions of the Federal agencies and a list of key personnel; section 2 contains the project resumes; and section 3 is composed of six indexes: subject, project director, organization, sponsoring agency, geographic location (state and U.S. congressional district), and contract or grant number. Project resumes are grouped by administering agency. Included in the Office of Vocational and Adult Education's Programs of National Significance are Projects of National Significance, the National Center for Research in Vocational Education, and Curriculum Coordination Centers. Each resume includes bibliographic information, subject terms describing the project, and an abstract focusing on project objectives and procedures. Directions for using the report and a sample resume are provided. (Author/KC)
