The Education Amendments of 1976 (PL 94-482) provided funds for states to develop postsecondary vocational home economics instructional materials. To date, most states have not developed instructional materials designed for use at the postsecondary level. This report summarizes a needs assessment project designed to identify the specific needs instructors perceived for instructional materials in their subject area, as well as student characteristics and present use of instructional media and materials in Texas programs. The activities of the project included a nationwide search for existing materials suitable for use at the post-secondary level; the preparation of four annotated bibliographies; and the development and statewide administration of a survey instrument. The survey revealed that the students of postsecondary vocational home economics were varied in characteristics; instructors used discussion, questioning, and lecture as the main teaching techniques; instructors would increase use of most types of instructional media and materials if more or better quality materials were available. Needs were perceived in each of the program areas: child development, food service/dietetics, fashion design/tailoring, and interior design. |
