The broad objectives of this curriculum are to: (1) develop skills that lead to effective decision making, problem solving, and management in the home, school, community, and workplace; (2) develop concepts and skills basic to home and family responsibilities; and (3) develop personal skills that will enhance employment potential. The syllabus notes that New York State requires that every student complete a home and career skills unit by the end of eighth grade. Performance objectives and supporting competencies are listed for each topic and are mandatory. Following a course overview, four modules are described. The first module deals with process skills, including decision making, problem solving, and management. The second module is on personal development, examining the meaning of self-concept and the relationship of self to others. The third module, on personal and family resource management, examines responsible consumerism, money management, nutrition management, clothing management, and personal environment management. The fourth module is on career planning, and deals with introduction to work, tentative plans, and entrepreneurship. Each module includes an overview; performance objectives with supporting competencies; suggested instructional strategies with emphasis on hands-on activities; and suggestions for students with special needs.
