National Tech Prep Demonstration Center Annual Performance Report.
Mount Hood Community Coll., Gresham, OR.
This annual performance report for the Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) National Tech Prep Demonstration Center (TPDC), in Gresham, Oregon, reflects TPDC's accomplishments and activities during the period of January 1, 1993 through February 28, 1994. The major purpose of the TPDC's grant is to disseminate information about Tech Prep to high schools in the form of course guidelines, sample articulation agreements, counseling materials, marketing guidelines, applied mathematics and communications packets, and conference materials. TPDC's 1993-94 accomplishments included the following: (1) increasing articulation agreements from 65 in 1992 to 78, covering 17 different professional-technical areas taught at MHCC and all 6 of the high school Certificate of Advanced Mastery (CAM) areas; (2) providing teleconferences and workshops for Tech Prep and Applied Academics; (3) exceeding the expected number of campus visits, including a group of 70 high school and community college administrators and instructors from Eastern Washington; (4) integrating applied academics into the 6 CAM's prescribed by the state; and (5) increasing staff development through participating in conventions and providing teleconferences and workshops. Although TPDC met or exceeded its expectations, it encountered funding limitations for further applied academics/tech prep implementation and staff and curriculum development activities. Appendixes include lists of on- and off-cite presentations, schools and agencies receiving TPDC packets, a Tech Prep/Applied Learning workshop brochure, a statistical summary of TPDC's work, materials from a TPDC mathematics workshop, and the TPDC winter newsletter.
