TITLE: ARRIVE. Annual Review of Research in Vocational
Education. Volume One.
YEAR PUBLISHED: 1980
NOTE: 360 p.
ABSTRACT: This book represents a sampling of current
research priorities in vocational education along with
suggested directions for further education. In the first of
the book's five sections, research efforts related to sex
equity in vocational education are summarized by M. Eloise
Murray. Both sex equity studies and sex affirmation studies
are included in this review. Section 2 describes past trends
and predicts future trends in vocational education
curriculum and instructional research. Reviewer Curtis Finch
summarizes research of the 1960s and early 1970s as overly
simplistic, while recent research has been more
comprehensive and specific. In section 3, research for
special needs populations is reviewed by L. Allen Phelps.
Four major special populations are addressed: limited
English-speaking, handicapped, incarcerated, and
disadvantaged learners. Included in this section are four
lighthouse studies. Richard W. Feller and David V. Tiedeman
examine research related to career development theory in
section 4. They first outline the sturcture of career
development theory as it has evolved over the past 30 years
and then summarize examples of current research in career
development theory. In section 5. Robert McGough and Daniel
Vogler provide a review of recent research sponsored by the
Department of Labor in the area of employment and training.

This is an ERIC database document. ERIC is the National
Education Information Network for providing ready access
to the literature of education -descriptions of exemplary
programs, research and development efforts, and related
information that can be used in developing more effective
educational programs. The ERIC database is currently
available on CD-ROM in the main library (ground floor of
the west wing) at Michigan State University. To locate
ERIC documents in the library identify the first line of
each record (i.e., the field ERIC TITLE NUMBER). ED
following ERIC TITLE NUMBER indicates an ERIC document,
an unpublished research study. Most of these items are
available in the Microforms library, located on the 3rd
floor of the west wing. All you need is the six digit ED
number. If EJ follows ERIC TITLE NUMBER the item is a
journal article. The complete journal name is listed after
the code JOURNAL.
