- Summary:
-
The purpose of the project was to provide current and/or prospective impact home economics teachers with opportunities to develop the sensitivity and skills needed to work with disadvantaged populations in inner city and rural areas. Twenty-four participants completed a one-week orientation workshop and a six-week internship. The orientation workshop focused on teaching communication skills, human relation skills, problems and needs of disadvantaged families, methods of teaching adults, and the organization and administration of Ohio's Impact and Family Life Education program. Four on-site locations were inner city and one program served disadvantaged rural districts. The evaluation of the project revealed the major strengths as positive attitudinal changes toward the populations being served; increased understanding of personal traits needed to work with disadvantaged adults as well as needed communication skills, human relations skills, and knowledge of subject matter; increased awareness of potential problems to be encountered when developing a family life program; and increased knowledge of the adult learner and of adult education methods and instructional resources. In addition, the interns were able to establish a favorable working relationship with the adult learners and program personnel and were able to see the inner-city situation in more realistic terms. (Suggestions for minimizing the weaknesses of the program are included in this report.) (BM)
