viii - Acknowledgments Animal_Science
Each unit of instruction is based on the performance needed for successful employment in an occupational area. Animal Science contains 19 units of instruction. A complete unit may contain most
or all of the following components: Objective Sheet, Instructor’s Guide, Answers, Transparency Master, Written Test, Handout, Information Sheet, Assignment Sheet, and Job Sheet.
Student Workbook
Objective Sheet
The Objective Sheet summarizes each unit for the student and the instructor. The Objective Sheet includes the following:
Introduction—This section introduces students to the unit topic and its importance to them. The introduction also relates the unit to the students’ experiences and their “need to know,” in order to help capture their interest and focus their attention on the specific topic.
Unit Objectives—The Unit Objective states the overall goal of the unit. It identifies what the student will be able to do after successfully completing the unit, as well as the standards used to measure student performance.
Specific Objectives—The Specific Objectives outline the teaching sequence of the competencies required to reach the Unit Objective.
The Specific Objectives on the Objective Sheet should be emphasized to all students at the start of each unit and throughout the teaching and learning processes. This will help answer student questions about performance requirements for each unit. Specific Objectives can also assist instructors in determining teaching strategies and instructional methods. Instructors should prepare for each unit by deciding how each objective could best be taught.
Use of This Publication
ixAnimal_Science
Instructors should modify, delete, or add objectives to meet the needs of students. When objectives are added, the instructor should remember to provide the needed information, Assignment and/or Job Sheet, and crite-rion-referenced test items.
Information Sheet
The Information Sheet provides the “must know” content essential for meeting the cognitive objectives in the unit.
Many objectives on the Information Sheet begin with a “Words to Learn” section. This boxed item identifies terms relating to the objective. Stu-dents should fill in the definitions, which can be found in the Glossary of Terms. Terms in the “Words to Learn” boxes are tested only indirectly with the objective information (not on the Written Test as a matching exercise).
Many objectives also include a “Consider This” section in a shaded box. This section includes a topic for classroom discussion. The Information Sheet may also include clarifying Notes and Examples, as needed.
The Information Sheet includes many boxed sidebar stories and “Fun Facts.” These items generally feature “interesting to know” facts. These features are included in the units to add interest. Instructors may use these components as they wish. For example, instructors may choose to quiz students over this material as an extra credit assignment.
Students should read the Information Sheet for each unit before it is discussed in class. Space is provided in the margins for both students and instructors to add notes that clarify and/or expand upon the information presented.
Review questions are provided at the end of each Information Sheet. Instructors may choose to have students answer the review questions as an additional assignment.
Assignment Sheets
The Assignment Sheets address the learning levels at or above the appli-cation level of Bloom’s taxonomy. They allow students to perform non-psy-chomotor activities related to occupational tasks. Assignment Sheets also provide students with an opportunity to use higher-order thinking skills, such as problem-solving, synthesizing, analyzing, and evaluating. In addi-tion, they may provide opportunities for cooperative learning and more detailed oral/written communication activities.
x - Use_of_This_Publication Animal_Science
Assignment Sheets activities can be “paper and pencil” activities, as well as those using computer software, videotapes, models, handouts, or other resources as appropriate. Several bonus assignments are included, which can be completed by students for extra credit. Basic Skills for the Assign-ment Sheets are identified in the Instructor’s Guide.
Before teaching an Assignment Sheet, review the directions and any spe-cific guidelines. Make certain that any needed materials from the Instruc-tor’s Manual are available. Once students have completed the Assignment Sheet, evaluate each student’s performance and provide reteaching and retesting as necessary. Have the students repeat the Assignment Sheet until they achieve mastery. Instructors may return the completed Assign-ment Sheets to the students so that they may use them for later reference if needed.
Job Sheets
Job Sheets give students step-by-step procedures for performing manipu-lative or psychomotor occupational tasks or jobs. The Job Sheet also functions as a Skill Test Record, facilitating the instructor’s evaluation of each student’s performance. Both the process and the end-product are evaluated. Diagrams, illustrations, and photographs are included, as needed, to assist students in completing the job.
Before teaching a Job Sheet, review the introduction and evaluation criteria. Remind the students that they should not fill in the blanks in the Yes/No columns. Explain all general guidelines, safety cautions, and warnings. Make sure that all tools, equipment, and supplies are available. Demonstrate each of the procedures outlined in the Job Sheet and allow the students to practice the Job Sheet skills before skills testing. Coach, correct, and supervise as necessary. Once students have completed the Job Sheet, evaluate each student’s performance and provide remediation as necessary. Have the students repeat the Job Sheet until they achieve mastery. Return the completed Job Sheets to the students so that they may use them for later reference if needed.

Instructor’s Manual
The Instructor’s Manual includes instructor reference materials, as well as a copy of the Student Workbook, all in loose-leaf format. Tabbed page dividers have been provided so that this information can be organized in any method the instructor sees most convenient.
Instructor’s Guide
The Instructor’s Guide leads instructors step by step through the unit. It recommends instructional strategies for each of the Specific Objectives. Resources (publications, videos, computer software, and other media) are listed, as well as unit references. These resources can be used to supple-ment the instructor’s knowledge of the subject area and to help students with particular interests or occupational objectives. The Instructor’s Guide also includes the definitions of the “Words to Learn,” which appear in the student’s Information Sheet.
Instructors should study the Instructor’s Guide before introducing the unit and allow time to obtain supplemental materials, prepare audiovi-sual materials, and contract outside resource persons. Specific tasks of the instructor will vary with each unit.
Answers
This component lists the answer to all of the Assignment Sheets and Written Tests.
Transparency Masters
The Transparency Masters are provided so that instructors can make transparencies to accompany specific units. Transparencies allow stu-dents to see the information being presented, thus reinforcing the learn-ing process. These visual images also direct attention to the topic under discussion. Transparencies should be made from the Transparency Mas-ters and placed where they will be readily available when needed. Trans-parencies should be left on the screen only when the related topics are under discussion. Transparencies may be photocopied for student use and given out as handouts.
Written Test
The Written Test provides criterion-reference evaluation of the Specific Objectives from in the Information Sheet. If instructors have added, deleted, or modified any objectives, appropriate changes should be made to the Written Test. The Written Test serves as both a pretest and a post-test. The Written Tests may be photocopied for classroom use.
xii - Use_of_This_Publication Animal_Science
Evaluation
Pretest
Use the unit Written Test for both the pretest and posttest. Give the students the pretest before they begin the unit. Use pretest results to guide individual students in progressing through the unit, doing enrich-ment work, or moving to the next unit.
Assignment Sheet
Evaluate students on Assignment Sheet activities. Students must repeat an Assignment Sheet until they have mastered the activity. Complete each student’s Profile of Training Mastery.
Skill Test
Explain to the students that they will be asked to demonstrate the procedures on the Job Sheets as a skills test. Describe the rating scale used on the skills test. Reteach and retest as necessary. Complete each student’s Profile of Training Mastery.
Posttest
After they have completed the unit, give students the Written Test again. Explain to the students that they will be asked to demonstrate on the Written Test actions listed in the specific objectives. Reteach and retest as necessary to meet individual student needs and state standards for student learning and competency gains. Complete the appropriate sec-tions of the Profile of Training Mastery. Review individual and group performance to evaluate teaching effectiveness. Adjust scope, sequence, or instructional methods for additional lessons as required.

CIMC has always been mindful of the importance of reinforcement (and sometimes remediation) of students’ academic skills as they progress through career and technology training, and has always
included activities in its materials to enhance and promote use of these skills.
State and federal legislation mandates vigorous basic skills development in career and technology education in the wake of demands by industry that workers must be academically, as well as technically, competent, given the nature of the highly complex workplace. In response, CIMC has taken the following steps to document that, indeed, the instructional materials do combine academic skills training with the career and tech-nology training. In addition, concerted efforts have been made to “beef up,” or enhance the basic skills instruction already present.
To assist teachers and students in identifying activities that promote basic skills development, basic skills are identified in the Instructor’s Guide for each Job Sheet or Assignment Sheet. The 10 broad skills areas include reading, writing, mathematics, science, oral communication, inter-personal, creative thinking, employability, social studies, and technology.
