Abstract | This report presents a final evaluation of the Chapter 1, Part B Program for Neglected and Delinquent Children, Citywide/District 75 Institutionalized Facilities Program. This program was designed to provide after-school supplementary instruction in prevocational skills, activities of daily living, and academic remediation to students between the ages of 7 and 21 who reside in group homes and institutions for the delinquent and disabled throughout the five boroughs of New York City (New York). Its main purpose was to prepare students to be independent after leaving the institution. The following chapters are included in this report: (1) "Introduction"; (2) "Evaluation Methodology"; (3) "Evaluation Findings"; and (4) "Conclusions and Recommendations." The following topics are covered in Chapter 3, "Evaluation Findings": (1) program organization; (2) program personnel; (3) site selection; (4) student selection; (5) student characteristics; (6) program setting; (7) curriculum; (8) student instruction; (9) instructional materials; (10) program procedures; (11) limits on program effectiveness; and (12) student outcomes. The strengths of the program are discussed, and improvements are suggested. Findings indicate that the pupil mastery objective was attained by 91 percent of the population served. Teachers also reported that the majority of students showed marked improvement in self-esteem and attitudes toward work and school. Five tables are included. (JS) |
