Moreover, the advice and encouragement of many associates in the U. S. Office of Education has been invaluable. The study would have been impossible without the excellent cooperation of Edna P. Amidon, Director, Home Economics Education Branch, Vocational and Technical Edu­ cation, who made the arrangements for use of the national survey data. Dr. Johnie Christian conducted preliminary interviews with home econom- ics supervisors and Dr. Mary Lee Hurt has given consultative help and encouragement throughout the period of this study. Gratitude is ex­ pressed also to the state and city supervisors who responded to both the pilot and the final questionnaire. In addition, the author is indebted to her family and friends for constant encouragement. ii v m August 12, 191^ Bom - Moorehead, Kentucky 1 9 3 6 ........

Div. of Career Technology and Adult Learning. PUB DATE 96 NOTE 66p. PUB TYPE Guides Classroom Use Teaching Guides (For Teacher)(052) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Behavioral Objectives; *Competence; Competency Based Education; *Consumer Education; *Curriculum Development; Educational Assessment; *Educational Philosophy; Evaluation Methods; *Family Life Education; *Home Economics; Secondary Education; State Curriculum Guides; Student Evaluation IDENTIFIERS *Maryland ABSTRACT This curricular framework is designed to assist administrators and teachers in planning, developing, and implementing family and consumer sciences programs in Maryland. It provides a philosophical foundation and a broad outline from which educators may construct comprehensive family and consumer sciences programs. The materials will aid local school systems in planning local curricula, developing a local philosophy, defining a local scope and sequence, evaluating the extent to which the goals and subgoals are contained in current curricular offerings, and identifying needed curricular content and instructional strategies. The document is organized into seven sections:(1) philosophy--definition of the nature of family and consumer sciences education and description of its relationship to society, the learner, and the school curriculum;(2) family and consumer sciences learner outcomes;(3) goals and subgoals (broad statements of desired outcomes, derived from the philosophy); (4) expectancies (statements that specify the expected behaviors within each subgoal);(5) illustrative objectives;(6) curriculum development and assessment (how to develop and use goals, subgoals, and expectancies in the preparation of family and consumer sciences instructional units, scopes, and sequences); and (7) authentic instructional assessments.

  • Consumer Education and a Critical Pedagogy of Consumption
    More Than Technical Skills: Consumer Education and a Critical Pedagogy of Consumption Jennifer A. Sandlin, Texas A & M University The purpose of this article is to advocate for a more critical form of consumer education that pushes past the traditional focus on teaching technical skills about how to operate more efficiently within the consumer system and encourages learners to question the assumptions of the existing consumer culture. While research and practice in K-12 and adult education increasingly are grounded in critical perspectives (Denzin, 2001; Holt, 2002; Kozinets, 2002; Murray & Ozanne, 1991; Murray, Ozanne, & _________..Jf =r1 Shapiro, 1994; Ozanne & Murray, 1995 and in the field of education; Apple, 1990; Freire, 1985; Giroux & McLaren, 1989; J Lankshear, 1987; McLaren, 1998; Shor, 1992), there has been a lack of integration of these ideas into consumer education research and practice. This article briefly reviews how consumer education has traditionally been constructed, then outlines a vision for a more critical consumer education termed a "critical pedagogy of III: I consumption." The goal is to start a dialogue among consumer educators about the fundamental purposes of consumer education and to begin advocating for a different kind of consumer education-one informed by the critical-theory based work occurring in the field of consumer research. Traditional Consumer Education Consumer education has been defined as the "process of gaining knowledge and skills to manage personal resources and to participate in social, political, and economic decisions that affect individual well being and the public good" (Bannister, 1996, p. 1). Throughout the history of consumer education, practitioners \~l concerned themselves with improving the "economic level of Ij., - 19 -li:,1 living for all citizens" (Bannister, p.

  • The Contribution of Consumer Protection to Sustainable Consumption
    United Nations TD/B/C.I/CPLP/17 United Nations Conference Distr.: General 29 April 2019 on Trade and Development Original: English Trade and Development Board Trade and Development Commission Intergovernmental Group of Experts on Consumer Protection Law and Policy Fourth session Geneva, 8 and 9 July 2019 Item 3 (a) of the provisional agenda Contribution of consumer protection to sustainable consumption The contribution of consumer protection to sustainable consumption Executive summary This note explores the connection between consumer protection and sustainable consumption. It refers to the interplay between sustainable consumption, the Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations guidelines for consumer protection. Consumer protection laws may not always include specific provisions on sustainable consumption, yet consumer protection agencies have used existing provisions to act in this area, engaging in consumer education and providing guidance to businesses, as well as addressing related cases, for example those related to environmental claims. Finally, the note provides some policy recommendations and areas for further discussion. GE.19-06943(E) TD/B/C.I/CPLP/17 I. Introduction 1.

Change agents are crucial for the promotion of such patterns, so there may be lessons for governance interventions that can be learnt from the every-day experiences of those who actively implement and promote sustainability in the field of anti-consumption. Eighteen social innovation pioneers, who engage in and diffuse practices of voluntary simplicity and collaborative consumption as sustainable options of anti-consumption share their knowledge and personal insights in expert interviews for this research. Our qualitative content analysis reveals drivers, barriers, and governance strategies to strengthen anti-consumption patterns, which are negotiated between the market, the state, and civil society. Recommendations derived from the interviews concern entrepreneurship, municipal infrastructures in support of local grassroots projects, regulative policy
