Abstract: Presented is the final report (1974) of an assessment of vocational education programs for the handicapped under Part B of the 1968 Amendments to the Vocational Education Act which included the requirements that 10 percent of each state's basic vocational education grant be expended exclusively for the handicapped. Part 1 focuses on assessment at the state level and includes a statistical overview of vocational education programing for the handicapped in all 50 states, and the following information based on a survey of 25 sample states: a description of state administrations, a financial profile of the states, and a discussion of policy issues (such as minority and handicapped staffing). Part 2 consists of results of on-site assessments made at 92 projects for the handicapped in 24 states and includes a statistical overview of the sample, and information on policy and planning at the local level, project administration, and the instructional programs. Presented in Part 3 are results of approximately 1,000 case study interviews with participants and their parents and 94 interviews with employers. Findings and conclusions of the complete study are summarized and recommendations based on the study (such as the need for monitoring of state expenditures by the Office of Education) are outlined in Part 4. Appended are 33 tables of participant and parent data. (LS)

Abstract: This textbook is part of a series that aims to develop all the mathematical power needed by the average person in the accurate control of his affairs. The purpose has been to teach first the most important topics of arithmetic and last those least frequently used. In addition to giving the child all the fundamental skills of calculation, room has been found for the introduction of those simple institutional applications which are likely to be among the immediate needs of those who leave school early. Every child who completes the sixth grade will know something of being accurate and business-like about his own earning, spending, and saving. He will comprehend the simplest methods of accounting which are to aid him in his own modest affairs, whether these relate to industrial payroll, farm income, household expenditure, or savings in the bank.
