Summary:The Experience-Based Career Education (EBCE) program was designed to provide on-site vocational experiences for high school youth in order to promote: (1) career development skills and knowledge; (2) self-knowledge--interests, abilities, and values; (3) reading skills; (4) problem solving skills; (5) oral communication; (6) writing skills; (7) interpersonal skills; (8) basic quantitative skills; and (9) maturation skills. The appendix for the report on Student Outcomes and Participant Opinions in Experience-Based Career Education (EBCE) Schools (TM 006 927) presents data on which that report is based, plus copies of the questionnaire and interview forms used. Test copies are not included, but test score distributions and analysis of covariance of reading and mathematics achievement test scores are presented. Chi-squared tests are presented for other data comparisons when relevant. Data are presented separately for each of the four EBCE schools and for control schools. For each EBCE school, data are presented separately for current students, parents, former students, and resource teachers. (CTM)
