Abstract | Opinion polls indicate that public confidence in educational leadership is declining, probably because the educational establishment is not delivering what people want. One demand is that education be made relevant to the world of work--an area in which vocational educators are in a strong position. The second demand is that education be made relevant to the achievement of the good life. This apparent dilemma can be resolved by integrating the educational enterprise and bringing together the three domains of practical arts, liberal arts, and fine arts. For this we must develop a fully integrated educational experience, one which will require the integrated effort of all our educational resources and which will cause far reaching changes in our educational methods. The resistance which vocational educators are still showing toward this necessary integration is based on unsound reasons, chiefly the fear of becoming lost in the larger picture. If vocational educators could perceive themselves, and be perceived, as being in full partnership in an enlarged view of the educational enterprise, they could break out of their present subordinate role. They should not be resisting the integration of education; they should be leading it. (SA) |
