Review and evaluation of consumer and homemaking education programs
1979
Wilson, Bessie Hackett
The National Institute of Education's Consumer and Homemaking Study, which is comprised of several substudies, addresses the fundamental questions of: 1) whether federally-funded consumer and homemaking education programs provide a distinctive and needed function in education; and 2) whether vocational education legislation should provide financial support for these programs. The Consumer and Homemaking Study is the most comprehensive review of funded home economics programs since their inception in 1917. A substudy on the responsiveness of programs involves five urban states and five rural states. Among the crucial issues to be investigated are how funds are used and what kind of impact federal funds have had on the consumer and homemaking education system. The study also seeks to determine how states allocate dollars and whether these methods enhance or impede program improvement in terms of legislative criteria. Another substudy deals with questions of program effectiveness, including knowledge, skills and interest gained.
