It is a cooperative project between Homemaking Education in the Texas Education Agency, and the College of Home Economics, Home Economics Education Department, Texas Tech University at Lubbock, Texas. The instructional materials which are being developed at the Center are intended to assist teachers and coordinators in promoting and teaching home economics gainful employment programsor homemaking education. To provide a background of information for the establishment of the Home Economics Instructional Materials Center, a Planning Grant Projectwas approved by the Texas Education Agency for February 1through August 31, 1967. The major purposes of the Planning Grant Project were (1) to assemble and catalog an occupational reference library, (2) to develop procedural steps for preparation of instructional materials, and (3) to illustrate the first sequence of these steps, that is, to develop job analyses and to list competencies needed for employability of students. The present major objectives of the Home Economics Instructional Materials Center are (1) to develop instructional materials designed foruse by students enrolled in cooperative part-time training programs and inpre- employment laboratory training programs in preparation for employment in occupations requiring home economics knowledge and skills, (2) to develop materials in homemaking education, and (3) to develop ata later time materials designed for use in home and community serviceprograms. Acknowledgement is given to: Mrs. Elizabeth F. Smith, Director, Homemaking Education, Texas Education Agency, who conceived the original plan for establishing the Center and continues to determine ways in which the Center can meet the needs of Homemaking Education in Texas.

It not only fulfills physical needs, but social and psychologial needs as well. In every age of history, clothing, fashion, and adornment have expressed the mores, values, and attitudes of groups of people. In addition, clothing provides opportunities for the individual to express himself. Clothing is a highly variable expense which may be controlled by good manage- ment. About ten percent of the family's income is spent for clothing. To make the best use of the family clothing dollar, the consumer should be informed not only about fashion and style but also textiles, clothing construction, and money management. After purchases are made proper care can extend the life of the garment as well as enhance its appearance. The purpose of this subject area guide is to present clothing and textiles in the perspective of family living. An attempt has been made to relate clothing and textiles to a variety of family life styles. Homemaking I introduces the significance of clothing in the life of each individual, the role of design in clothing, and management and consumer aspects of clothing. It includes development of skills needed in con- struction of a simple garment including pattern selection, selection of fabrics and notions, pattern use, management in construction, basic construction techniques, fitting, and pressing. Homemaking II covers individual and family clothing decisions related to wardrobe planning, clothing care, grooming, and clothing selection. Skills in clothing construction are increased through more advanced projects. Characteristics, selection, and construction of clothing for children are also included. Homemaking III outlines factors influencing family clothing decisions, man- agement and consumer aspects of family clothing, and the role of clothing and textiles in the economy. A study of textiles is included which covers fiber characteristics, yarn structure, fabric construction, fabric finishes, dyeing and printing, design, and textile labeling. A unit on advanced clothing construction covers fashion design, major pattern alterations, advanced construction techniques, and professional processes involved in alteration and maintenance of clothing. Homemaking IV emphasizes cultural aspects of clothing, as wellas the interrelationship of various aspects, and the economics of textile production. The role of government protection and consumer responsibilities in the purchase of textiles is covered. Planning clothing for college, employment, and personal life is included as well as clothing care experiments and selection, use, and care of major clothing equipment. A unit on textiles covers fabric finishes and includes textile experiments. Tailoring principles are also included. In an effort to place greater emphasis on career and job opportunities available in homemaking, a unit is included in each sequencecourse on job and career opportunities in the area of clothing and textiles.
