Abstract | An overall strategy is reported for updating secondary and postsecondary vocational/technical teachers in the technologies of their teaching areas. It is designed for use by vocational educators and others who provide technological update: local school, institution, and district administrators and boards; teacher educators; vocational/technical professional development leaders; business/industry representatives; and state and federal department of education personnel. The first chapter provides background on the need for the strategy, its development, and the nine essential strategy characteristics. Chapters 2 to 10 each treat one of the generic characteristics of a successful strategy for technological update: structure for action, roles and responsibilities, policy, resources, incentives and rewards, high potential techniques, alternative technique configurations, incorporation of update in programs, and continuing and self-renewing activities. Each chapter presents (1) a rationale for the inclusion of the characteristic, (2) guidelines for implementing the characteristic, and (3) specific details appropriate to the illustration of the discussion. Chapter 11 discusses the implementation of technological update programs at the statewide level and suggests an appropriate structure for administering such programs. Chapter 12 provides related recommendations for action to increase the effectiveness of current efforts to provide vocational teachers with technological update. (YLB) |
