| Abstract | This bulletin argues that by integrating academic and vocational instruction into a unified curriculum, schools can ensure that students are better prepared to meet the challenges of careers and a changing society. Vocational education provides three broad areas of skills: entry level job skills, employability skills, and employment skills. But despite the current separation of the curricula, vocational education does not exist apart from academics, and some vocational subjects require a great deal of academic skill. Therefore, integrating academic and vocational instruction into a unified curriculum is a way of better ensuring that non-college-bound students are prepared for life in a changing work world and a complex society. Four examples are described of school settings that are integrating academic and vocational instruction: Dauphin County Area Vocational Technical School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Corvallis School District, Oregon; Great Oaks Joint Vocational School District in Cincinnati, Ohio; and Sandy Union High School in Sandy, Oregon. The report concludes with general recommendations for integrating academic and vocational instruction, and 12 references are included. (TE) |
