Summary:
TO INCREASE THE COMPETENCE OF PERSONS ENGAGED IN RESEARCH ACTIVITIES IN THE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION FIELD, FOUR UNIVERSITY SEMINARS WERE CONDUCTED ON (1) VOCATIONAL RESEARCH DESIGN, (2) RESOURCES IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES RELATING TO VOCATIONAL EDUCATION, (3) PARADIGMS FOR EVALUATION OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, AND (4) ADMINISTRATION OF DEVELOPMENT, PILOT, DEMONSTRATION, AND EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAMS, AND METHODS OF INITIATING RESEARCH PROPOSALS, FUNDING, REPORTING, AND DATA DISSEMINATION. EVALUATIVE INSTRUMENTS USED TO ASSESS SEMINAR OUTCOMES WERE (1) A PERSONAL DATA QUESTIONNAIRE, (2) AN ADAPTATION OF THE SEMANTIC DIFFERENTIAL DESIGNED TO ASSESS ATTITUDE TOWARD RESEARCH, (3) "BALES SMALL GROUP INTERACTION SCHEMA," AND (4) A PRE- AND POST-TEST ON CONTENT OF THE SEMINARS. THE TOTAL OF 136 PARTICIPANTS ENCOMPASSED 6 MAJOR AREAS OF EDUCATIONAL RESPONSIBILITY. GENERAL CONCLUSIONS SUGGESTED THAT THE SEMINARS WERE SUCCESSFUL AND SHOULD BE CONTINUED. PROCEDURES WERE RECOMMENDED FOR FUTURE SEMINARS. (HB)
