Vocational Education Media Center.; South Carolina State Dept. of Education, Columbia. Office of Vocational Education. PUB DATE 72 NOTE 100p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$4.20 DESCRIPTORS Business Education; Clothing Design; *Distributive Education; *Guides; High School Curriculum; Manuals; Student Developed Materials; *Student Projects IDENTIFIERS *Career Awareness; South Carolina ABSTRACT This semester-length guide for high school distributive education students is geared to start the student thinking about the vocation he would like to enter by exploring one area of interest in marketing and distribution and then presenting the results in a research paper known as an area of distribution manual. The first 25 pages of this document pertain to procedures to follow in writing a manual, rules for entering manuals in national Distributive Education Clubs of America competition, and some summary sheet examples of State winners that were entered at the 25th National DECA Leadership Conference. The remaining 75 pages are an example of an area of distribution manual on "How Fashion Changes Relate to Fashion Designing As a Career," which was a State winner and also a national finalist. In the example manual, the importance of fashion in the economy, the large role fashion plays in the clothing industry, the fast change as well as the repeating of fashion, qualifications for leadership and entry into the fashion world, and techniques of fabric and color selection are all included to create a comprehensive picture of past, present, and future fashion trends.

  • Humility — Limiting the Power of Kings a D’Var Torah on Parashat Shoftim (Deut
    Humility — Limiting the Power of Kings A D’var Torah on Parashat Shoftim (Deut. 16:18 – 21:9) By Alan I. Friedman “Shoftim v’shotrim titen-l’cha b’chol-sh’areycha … lish’vateycha….” “You shall appoint magistrates and officials for your tribes in all of your cities….” Parashat Shoftim addresses the new social reality that would emerge when the Israelites entered and conquered the Promised Land following the death of Moses. God foretells that, when the people possess the land and settle in it, they will desire to set a king over themselves, like all the nations that are around them.1 Aware that eventually, after they had forged a nation, the people would need a central authority, God gives permission for appointment of such a ruler (“You shall be free to set a king over yourself”),2 with the proviso that the king be chosen (or, at least, endorsed) by God3 — thus rooting the monarchy in divine approval. In spite of God’s permission (or command), Israel functioned without a king for over 300 years — from Joshua until Saul — under the leadership of the Judges. When the people approached the prophet Samuel to appoint a king over them, he was reluctant; ultimately he acquiesced. Samuel’s crowning of Saul as king of Israel in the eleventh century BCE initiated the monarchical system of government in Jewish history. Once on the throne, the king had broad powers. Deuteronomy, therefore, emphasized that a superior divine law applied to both king and people and that kingship of Israel was “an aspect of carrying out God’s covenantal plan.
