1977 Report of College of Education Standing Committee on Follow-Up Evaluations.
Denton, Jon J.; And Others
This document reports on the results of a follow-up survey investigating recent graduates of five Texas Agriculture and Mechanical University (TAMU) teacher education programs. The study was conducted to (1) locate graduates and determine employment patterns; (2) obtain graduate opinions about the effectiveness of the TAMU teacher education curricula and programs; and (3) recommend course and curricular revisions needed to strengthen teacher education offerings. Graduates of agriculture education, educational psychology, industrial education, health and physical education, and education curriculum and instructions programs were polled, as well as the supervisors of respondents who were teaching at the time of the survey. Subjects were questioned on twenty-nine items related to teaching skills as well as on items relating to the particular curriculum of each teaching major. Results of the questionnaires are presented according to the three identified goals. Recommendations are made for program revisions in each of the five curricular areas. Appendices present (1) follow-up study timetable and expense schedule, (2) follow-up questionnaires, (3) questionnaire cover letters and data responses, and (4) general observations drawn from responses to open-ended questions.
