Abstract | A 1-year study was conducted to implement a computerized data system for the comprehensive evaluation of Individualized Manpower Training System (IMTS) Learning Resource Centers (LRCs). Data for the system were collected by the administration of student, staff, and center summary forms especially designed for the purpose by the University of West Florida. Original plans were to collect data at eight IMTS and three control sites. Data from five IMTS and two control sites entered the system. All completed forms were sent to the Florida Vocational Technical Adult Education (VTAE) Computer Service Center at St. Petersburg where the data was keypunched and machine-stored. A copy of the punch card deck was sent to Baltimore, Maryland, where the analysis programs for the system were designed, written, and executed. In general it was found that the installation of the IMTS procedures at the five LRCs were sufficiently uniform to permit meaningful comparison among the sites. If it is taken into account that this first run of the data system must be viewed as much an evaluation of the system itself as it was aimed at evaluating the IMTS programs, then the overall outcome of the experience can be rated as highly positive. (The report contains chapters on description of the IMTS system, aspects of evaluation system design and implementation, data collection procedures, results of implementation, and summary, conclusions, and recommendations. Approximately half of the contents are appendixes of related materials, e.g., list of IMTS training packages, data collection forms, software for the analysis of the computerized data system, and raw data of IMTS site summary file.)
