A Survey Of The Work-Study Programs In The State Universities Of Kentucky, Glen Knight

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This study was undertaken to determine the status of the work-study programs in the eight state universities of Kentucky. A review of the literature indicated that little research had been conducted in the area of work-study administration, and thus this study was performed to increase the knowledge in this area. A questionnaire was developed to survey the work study program at the eight universities concerning the following three areas: organization and administration, evaluation procedures, and professional preparation. A high degree of centralization was indicated at all of the universities in regard to their student work programs, and administrative policy was …

A Follow-Up Study Of The Distributive Education Graduates Of Sky View High School 1972-1976, Thomas J. Broberg May 1978

A Follow-Up Study Of The Distributive Education Graduates Of Sky View High School 1972-1976, Thomas J. Broberg

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

Distributive education is an instructional program that is designed to prepare people for careers in the distributive or marketing sector of the economy. Crawford and Meyer give a generally accepted definition of distributive education as:

... a vocational instructional program designed to meet the needs of persons who have entered or are preparing to enter a distributive occupation or an occupation requiring competency in one or more of the marketing functions. It offers instructions in marketing, merchandising, related management, and personal development (Crawford and Meyer, 1972, p.2)

Educators in the distributive education field traditionally have agreed that the curriculum should …


A Study Of The Feasibility Of A Two-Year Retail Marketing Program At Southern Utah State College, John R. Pruitt May 1978

A Study Of The Feasibility Of A Two-Year Retail Marketing Program At Southern Utah State College, John R. Pruitt

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

According to Klieforth (1969), "technology, business, industry, communications, and other factors affecting our economic life are changing rapidly. Our educational system must keep up with these changes and prepare our youth for the world of work." Although many of our young people will desire a four-year degree (and in some cases, higher degrees), many are inclined toward a shorter, formal post-secondary education.

As evidenced by the phenomenal growth and development of the two-year colleges in the first half of this century (Goddard, 1962) many of our young people are looking at more vocational and technical education than ever before. This …

A Survey Study Of Employer And Student Interest In A Possible General Marketing Program At Snow College, Ephraim, Utah, Rick L. Dove

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

There are many definitions of distributive education. Lucy Crawford defines distributive education as follows:

Distributive education is a vocational instructional program designed to meet the needs of persons who have entered or are preparing to enter a distributive occupation or an occupation requiring competency in one or more of the marketing functions. It offers instruction in marketing, merchandising, related management and personal development. (Crawford & Meyer, 1972, p. 2)

Crawford and Meyer call distributive education "the people-center member of the vocational education family" (1972, p. vii) . Distributive education is a program of instruction for those who are interested in …

An Analysis Of Shorthand Usage As Perceived By Selected Ogden, Utah Business Executives, Normadine D. Kennedy

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

A study of shorthand usage as perceived by selected Ogden, Utah business executives was conducted to determine if curriculum changes must be made in Business Education Department programs in order to meet the secretarial training requirements of Ogden, Utah Business. Data were collected by telephone interview from 84 businessmen who employed one or more secretaries. These data were stratified according to type of business and size of business. Secretarial employment was stratified according to shorthand as a job requirement and to shorthand utilization of the job. In addition, utilization of shorthand supplements and substitutes was analyzed. Trends were determined by …


Status Of Junior High School Typing Programs In The State Of Utah, Jane Frances Blair May 1978

Status Of Junior High School Typing Programs In The State Of Utah, Jane Frances Blair

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

The following statement was made by Tonne, Popham, and Freeman in 1965:

With typewriting being offered in one-third of the junior high schools, with three-fourths of them starting this program within the last ten years, and with almost three-fourth of the schools reporting an increase in enrollment within the past year, it is obvious that a prospective typewriting teacher may well expect to find himself in a junior high school

Sanborn stated:

Personal-use typewriting belongs to the ninth grade, either in junior high school or in a four-year high school. Placed here, it not only affords the student the opportunity …


Job Qualification And Activities Of Post Secondary Cooperative Education Coordinators In Utah, Carl L. Grunander May 1978

Job Qualification And Activities Of Post Secondary Cooperative Education Coordinators In Utah, Carl L. Grunander

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

"While a 1973 English major tends bar in a local nightspot, a social work graduate labors in a steel mill. A math major washes dishes in Florida, an education graduate works as a bank teller and a psychology major serves cocktails in Maine." (Jolly & Pierce, 1976, p . 2) . As these examples point out, there is a great need for our institutions of higher learning to be more responsive to the needs of the job market today.

For the past several years, colleges and universities have been criticized on the basis that they do not prepare young people …

A Follow-Up Study Of The Utah State University Business Education Graduates Receiving Bachelors Degrees, 1969-1976, Cynthia Olsen Krebs

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The 1969 through 1976 graduating classes of the business education program at Utah State University were surveyed in this study.
