A Study of Hawaii Community College's Services for Handicapped Students (1984-85): Four Data Bases.
Hawaii Interviewing, Honolulu.
This report presents findings of a needs assessment project to determine areas of improvement necessary to ensure the full participation of handicapped students at Hawaii Community College (HCC). A particular focus was the vocational education programs. The report is organized around the four databases that were derived from assessment questions asked of HCC faculty and handicapped students, employers of the handicapped, and agencies serving the handicapped. Chapter I is an executive summary. Chapter II gives the purpose and methods of the study and describes how the report is organized (i.e., around four databases, with each described separately). In Chapter III, a listing of the faculty data is given; the sample, procedures, and questionnaire are described; the findings are presented and analyzed; and summary of findings is given. Similar presentations are made of the handicapped student, employer, and service agency interview data in Chapters IV, V, and VI, respectively. Conclusions are presented, again by database, in Chapter VII. Chapter VIII makes specific recommendations in the areas of training, recruitment, placement, curriculum, and administration. The questionnaire and interview schedules are appended. (YLB)
