Intensive Office Lab Is Capstone

Course At Wawasee

The intensive office laboratory is the capstone course of the business department at Wawasee high school. This year there are 13 girls enrolled in the lab. In the three-hour block of time set aside for the laboratorymany office- simulated activities are performed by the students enrolled. It is the objective of the program to have a “real” office situation. The laboratory is equipped like many modern offices — secretarial desks, electric typewriters, several adding machines, calculators, transcribing machines and duplicating equipment. The intensive office lab is the final step in a program designed to train young people in the business field. The purpose of this program is to provide the skills and knowledges necessary for entry positions in the business office without the need for additional training except for upgrading skills or specialization in a certain area. .This program is organized under the guidance of the state government which provides, under the vocational educational act of 1563, funds to be used for the vocational training of students. The business and office education department, a division of the Indiana state department of education, works ’with school officials to administer these programs. Students entering the lab must meet certain -prerequisites, but for this year at Wawasee, these cannot be met due to the great change in curriculum through consolidation. Next year all students entering the lab will have met the necessary requirements. Presently, the lab is organized so that the first semester is a combination of advanced shorthand, advanced typing, filing and office machines. During the second semester the students will not need to use books, except as reference materials. The lab students will be using materials gathered from various business offices in the surrounding communities. These students will be completing the same jobs performed by the people who are actually working in a particular office. The laboratory students will work on a rotational basis, completing the projects or jobs which are office- simulated. Some of these are receptionist, office manager, legal secretary, medical secretary, real estate clerk, bank clerk, secretary, etc. Some of the offices within the school will “hire” these girls on a rotational basis — without pay, but good experience. Some of the objectives of the laboratory are as follows: 1. Development of sophistications with regard to employment that are comparable to those which would be developed in a cooperative education program or an on-the-job training program. 2. Development of self-direc-tion in the performance of office tasks. 3. Development of initiative and a sense of responsibility for the quality and quantity of production. 4. Understanding of the relationship among the different Work stations in an organization — an understanding of flow of work. 5. Further development to occupational standards, or higher, of the skills and knowledges previously learned. 6. Understanding of the occupations which exist and the employment requirements for these. 7. Understanding of the businesses of the community and their relationship to each other. 8. Development of the ability to work harmoniously with others — development of effective human relationships. 9. Further development of efficient work habits. 10. Development of knowledge about a skill in performing various office tasks. 11. Development of knowledge about and skill in using such documents as flow charts, office

manuals, procedure manuals, organizational charts, etc. 12. Refinement .of knowledges and skills according to individual needs (remedial instruction, etc.). 13. Development of capability to secure employment, to maintain employment and to advance in employment. An advisory committee, composed of business people of the community, contributes a great deal to the success of the program. The committee meets monthly to advise the teacher, Mrs. Linda Hoy, on current buiness trends and to report on the materials they collect for the course. The advisory committee is made up of the following persons: Mrs. Gloria Shipley, David Spray, chairman; Mrs. Otto Wiggs, H. A. Ganger, Chris Koher and Mrs. Norma Hamilton, recorder.
