Occupations entered by agriculture education graduates of Virginia Polytechnic Institute 1948-1958

Heiskell, Lawrence Carson January 1959 (has links)
The Problem.- To determine occupations entered by Agricultural Education graduates of Virginia Polytechnic Institute from 1948 through 1958, their financial advancement, and relationship of undergraduate success to success, after graduation. Purposes.- To determine fields of employment, beginning salaries, number who have changed jobs, reasons for job changes, educational advancements, relationship of quality credit average and co-curricular activities to occupational choices and advancement, and curriculum changes graduates thought desirable. Method.- Study was based on student records and on objective questionnaire which was mailed to each of the 333 living individuals to secure additional data. Returns were received from 272 (81.7 percent) of the graduates. Findings.- The 236 Bachelor's degree graduates entered 24 different occupations immediately after graduation, but in 1958 they were employed in 50 different occupations. Beginning salaries for all occupations averaged $3,211, while the 1958 salaries averaged $5,235. Salaries averaged $3,076 for 144 beginning teachers of vocational agriculture. In 1958, 82 teachers of vocational agriculture received salaries averaging $4,643. One hundred and ninety (69.9 percent) graduates changed jobs one or more times since graduation. Better opportunity to advance and to obtain a higher salary were the major reasons for not teaching vocational agriculture and for leaving the profession. Less than 15.0 percent of the graduates earned advanced degrees. There was no definite relationship between quality credit averages or participation in co-curricular activities and fields of employment, but an apparent relationship existed between these factors and success and advancement. Six areas of increased course offerings were suggested. / Master of Science

A study of the effectiveness of vocational agriculture in Virginia as measured by the occupational status of former students, including the evaluation of some of the influences on occupational selection, 1918-1932

Kline, John M. January 1942 (has links)
In order to determine the effectiveness of vocational agriculture in Virginia from 1918 to 1932, and to further assist the teachers in this follow-up work, this study was made with the following objectives in mind: 1. To determine the occupational status of former students of vocational agriculture in Virginia. 2. To determine trends in occupational selection and the relation of industrial and agricultural economic conditions to occupational selection. 3. To evaluate some of the influences on occupational selection, such as amount of vocational agriculture; type of agriculture of the community; efficiency of the Agriculture Department, and certain census data regarding counties. This study includes data from 148 white and 25 negro schools, and also includes follow-up records from 7,784 white and 1,583 negro ex-students of vocational agriculture in Virginia from 1918 to 1932. / Master of Science

Beekeeping for vocational agriculture students

Cheek, Ralph Bryant January 1949 (has links)
Much information is available in the field of Apiculture, some technical and some practical. It would appear, however, that there is justification for an attempt to provide information of a practical nature for use in high school Vocational Agricultural classes. Available publications either are too comprehensive or do not contain sufficient material for students of Vocational Agriculture who wish to study beekeeping. It is the intent of this thesis to consolidate and organize factual information for class use by teachers, to suggest a few student problems and activities, and to develop a course calendar of units for study. A detailed discussion of only one type of honey production is presented; but from this type (bulk-comb honey) any other form of honey production may be developed. / M.S.

A study of teachers' practices in planning and conducting a program of vocational agriculture in Virginia

Guilliams, George Cornelious January 1949 (has links)
This questionnaire study was an attempt to determine the practices teachers follow in planning and conducting a program of vocational education in agriculture in Virginia high schools. The study revealed that the thinking of the regular teachers of vocational and the assistant teachers of vocational agriculture in charge of veterans was comparable as indicated by the nearly equal percentage of teachers from both groups who checked the practices on the questionnaire as “Commonly practiced" or "Recommended". Many practices were not carried out by a majority of the teachers; however, the additional recommendations to these practices indicates that the majority of all teachers favored the use of most of those practices in the instructional program of vocational agriculture. The responses to some practices were not complete, particularly by the assistant teachers of vocational agriculture in charge of veterans who failed to provide information on the practices dealing with the FFA program. The number of teachers who failed to recommend these practices were in a small minority and only one practice was checked as not recommended by a majority of the regular teachers of vocational agriculture. On the whole, most practices were favored by all teachers. The large majority of teachers who carried out these practices or recommended that they be carried out would tend to indicate that they favor using these practices in the program of vocational education in agriculture in Virginia high schools. / M.S.
