Career Education in Higher Education. An Infusion Model.
Ryan, Charles W.; And Others
This document was designed to provide a vehicle for educators in postsecondary institutions to (1) develop a philosophical position regarding the career education concept, (2) consider the philosophical implications of career education as related to curriculum reform in institutions of higher education, and (3) develop procedures for relating the content of curriculum to the needs of students enrolled in postsecondary institutions. The major portion of this document is comprised of instructional units which represent faculty and administrative efforts to infuse career education concepts at the postsecondary level, using two schools as examples--University of Maine and Husson College. Sixteen sample units (University of Maine) intended for use in the areas of education and human development and nine sample units (Husson College) intended for use in business education and business administration are included. Each instructional unit includes an introduction, unit goals, unit objectives, learning activities, resources, evaluation, and time constraints, as required by the model used by staff for the production of these units. A separate chapter (10 pages) illustrates the approach developed to train faculty and staff in the philosophy and concepts of career education. (TA)
