Thesis (Ed.D.)--University of Massachusetts Lowell, 2005.

The size of America's high school dropout rate is considered unacceptable in today's highly technical world. In 1999, 11.2% of the nation's 18--24 year old young adults were not enrolled in school and had not earned their high school diploma. School-to-Work (STW) is considered to be a means to keep at-risk students in school and help to prepare them for the world of work.

520 $a The size of America's high school dropout rate is considered unacceptable in today's highly technical world. In 1999, 11.2% of the nation's 18--24 year old young adults were not enrolled in school and had not earned their high school diploma. School-to-Work (STW) is considered to be a means to keep at-risk students in school and help to prepare them for the world of work.
520 $a This study examined whether high quality STW programs and marginal STW programs differed in terms of reducing dropout. Three surveys were used in the study: Felder and Soloman's Index of Learning Styles (ILS) (2003), a modified ILS, Index of Supervisor's Teaching Styles , targeting worksite supervisors, and a Student Self Evaluation Survey to assess students' opinions about school, worksite, and academic self esteem. A fourth instrument was developed and used by this researcher to assess worksite quality.
520 $a Data were collected from 51 at-risk students from four school districts and nine worksites supervisors. The analyses compared different quality worksites based on nine student-supervisor pairs. Internal consistency estimates of student surveys were based on the full sample of students. Two research hypotheses were generated but neither could be accepted based on the analyses. Thus there was no statistical support for the hypotheses that there is a differential impact on students depending on the quality of their worksite placement. Nonetheless, even with this small sample, there were signs to suggest that high quality programs have a positive influence on at-risk students.
520 $a It is recommended that further research with a larger sample of students and workplace supervisors be conducted to obtain a clearer picture of the usefulness of STW. In the meantime, administrators should try to identify those aspects of the worksite experience that could be meaningfully incorporated for all at-risk students, not just those who participate in STW.
