It describes career education projects by the following paradigm: topics, dimensions," measures, and descriptors. (The four topics are: .school district, career education project, Ohreer education instrutional program, and evaluation of career education project.) Volume 1 provides an 11-page working outline of the taxonomy developed by an analysis of 72 representative elementary and secondary career education projects throughout the United States. It also contains 68 easily-readable charts which analyze to the nearest 10 petcent the data of the 72 projects in'a form corresponding to the taxonomies outline. Volume 1also contains an excerpt from'the U. S. Office of Education publication, Career Education: Programs and Pro s, and 60 pages of sample career-education project director's intilerview rms. volumes 2, 3, and 4 contain unevenlydetailed, alphabetically listed, profiles of over 200 career edificationprojects in the 50 States, which follow this form: district aixa project information, approach to career education, project staff, school staff, training, community resourcet, curriculum materials,, and ideas that worked.

I 1 314 INTRODUCTION In the Summer of 1974, Kenneth B. Hoyt, Associate Commissioner, USOE Office of Career Education, sponsored and presided at 20 Career Education Mini-Conferences in Washington, D.C. Over 250 project directors.and classroom teachers representing over 250 career edu- cation projects for elementary and secondary students took part. The participants were updated on USOE policy in career education, described what they were doing at home, exchanged information with each other, and contributed locally-made materials to the USOE Career" Education Library. Policy Studies in Education, a department of the not-for-profit Educational Research Council of America, was commissioned to attend the conferences, interview. the participants, develop profiles of their projects, analyze the status of career education nationwide, and prepare a taxonomy to map the past and help guide the future of USOE funding, policy in'career education. Policy Studies in Education developed a series of four volumes, of which the present volume is one: I. TAXONOMY OF CAREER EDUCATION --A general description of the national movement as revealed by a representative sample of the profiles. This volume highlights features found in many projects and identifies significant patterns ofactivity. II. PROFILES OF CAREER EDUCATION --Alabama Iowa III. PhOFILES OF CAREER EDUCATION - -Kansas - New Mexico IV. PROFILES OF CAREER EDUCATION - -New York -.Wyoming The TAXONOMY is designed to characterize, sunmarize, and generalize about the career education movement after a halfdecade of energetic activity. USOE has purposely left a great deal to local imagination and local initiative.The TAXONOMY contains the harvest of the major ideas and activities that constitute the practice of career education in elementary and secondary schools today. The PROFILES are designed to tell enough about each project to let the reader know whether he should write to thelocal project director for more information. There is of course much more to the projects than can be told in the fewpages devoted to each of them. All profiles have a common statistical sectionalthough in some cases local personnel did not supply the requested information. The profiles differ.in ne-,rative treatment dependingupon whether the profiles were written by the staff of Policy Studiesintducation (about one-third of the descriptions)or by local project personnel (about two-thirds of the descriptions)'. Some school districts have more than one project and thus are represented bymore than one project description. The profiles have never been reviewed by localproject personnel. They were rushed into print justas soon as they were completed in the hope.tt they would be immediatelyuseful, saving the weeks or . months of delay that local editing and approval wouldhave required. Apologies are due to local projects whichhave been in any way mis- represented in these descriptions. Taken together, these four volumes contain themost definitive description of career education available. a TABLE OF CONTENTS OVERVIEW 1 Section I: TAXONOMY -- Topics, Dimensions, Measures and Descriptors in the classification outline 9 Section II: PATTERNS OF ACTIVITY -- Applying the Taxonomy 'to a Representative Sample of Career Education Projects 21 , APPENDIX A: Excerpt from Career Education: Programs & Progress A-1 APPENDIX B: Career.Education Project Director's Interview Guides B-1 7 OVERVIEW A taxonomy is a classification system for bringing order tp phenomena which might otherwise be difficult to comprehend.A.good taxonomy arranges information so that major patterns becomeclearly visible and--when accompanied by an understanding of the dynamics of evolution, growth, and change--can be servicable in explaining why those patterns occur. Career education is a major national movement touching schools and communities in every state* Much discussed, it has yet to be well described. If a satisfactory taxonomy could be developed for des- cribing and classifying the kinds of activities now taking place in the name of career education, the movement could be better analyzed and more fully understood. Potential Uses Of A Taxonomy For Career Education There are five possible uses-for a carefully-developed, systematic- ally-tested taxonomy of career education: a 1. It could u22...EmdsetoiLclessulastat so that local projects could be analyzed, described, compared, contrasted, and summarized. At present, there are few widely-accepted definitions, of the major concepts which underlie the move- ment. This presents some difficulties in studying and discussing what is happening. 2. Given sufficient detailed information about a representative cross-section of career education projects, a good taxonomy : could be used to map the movement to:date. Such a map would have the advantage of revealing which pathways are'being explored and which are not, how much overlap and how much differentiation there is among projects, whether certain regions of the country and certain groups of students were being better served than others, and so on. "Appendix A contains an excellent brief review of the movementwritten by the staff of the USOE Office of Career Education. 1 3. The taxonomy could be usedto generate a systematic set of program ideas. That is, time could be deliberatelyput into thinking up new programs in areas wherelittle is now happen- ing or alternativeprograms for areas in which a great deal is now happening but might lackvariety and imagination. 4. Because the taxonomy could beused to generate a get of distinctive choices, it might also beused to help frame the debate about what choices shouldbe'made. Certainly it would offer clear'evidenceas to the kinds of activities which schools find popular and feasible. The debate, of course, need not be resolved in favor of widely-usedactivities. 5.

  • Walk-To-School Prioritization Analysis for the Schools of Knox County, Tennessee
    Walk-To-School Prioritization Analysis for the schools of Knox County, Tennessee Prepared for the Knox County Dept. of Engineering & Public Works by January 2014 The objective of this study is to identify the locations in Knox County having the greatest amount of potential and realized pedestrian activity associated with the walk-to-school trip type. With knowl- edge about where the greatest pedestrian demand exists, capital planners can focus efforts toward the determination of specific pedestrian infrastructure needs across the county. The Knox County school walking trip estimates were developed using RPM’s non-motorized trip modeling process. The process uses a combination of local and national data to produce walk-to- school trip estimates for all 86 public schools in Knox County. In the model, every student repre- sents one trip made to school, with the potential for this to be a walking trip increasing as the trip length decreases. The student’s home address is geo-coded as his/her origin and the student’s school is geo-coded as his/her destination. The student data was obtained from Knox County Schools for all 59,276 students in the school system using school year 2013-2014 enrollment data. With the origin and destination of all travel-to-school trips mapped, a unique trip assignment for all 59,276 trips to school was performed using current open-source mapping. This process results in the travel-to-school distance assuming that the existing street network is used to make the trip.
