California State Dept. of Education, Sacramento.
Part of a series designed to assist California school districts with the implementation of career education in K-12, this paper contains the California Plan for Career Education, 1978-1983. Chapter 1 introduces the plan, stating its purpose, rationale, definitions, the need for career education in California, career education goals and a conceptual model of career education. In Chapter 2, the needs and planning objectives identified in the state plan are found to be validated through legislation, public hearings, and correspondence. Chapter 3 outlines the role and responsibilities of the State Department of Education while Chapter 4 delineates the types of professional assistance and planning steps the offices of county superintendents of schools may want to address. In Chapter 5 are contained the illustrative planning and implementation steps for local educational agencies. The focus of Chapter 6 is statewide implementation of the plan so that career education goals can be translated into program goals, objectives, and strategies. The appendixes cover the following topics: (1) prior activities and accomplishments of the State Department; (2) recently funded career education programs; (3) samples of policy statements and needs assessment instruments; (4) supportive concepts for career education goals; (5) translation of career education goals into learner objectives by age; and (6) evaluation of the plan's implementation.
