Abstract:
This study was conducted to determine the professional development needs of postsecondary agriculture instructors in Ohio. One hundred and eleven instructors from 7 different institutions were asked to indicate their ability to perform each of 30 instructional and program management skills/techniques and also to rate the importance of each on a mailed questionnaire. The highest needs were improving the assessment of student needs, skills in promoting programs, and use of computers. Other high areas reflected the need for day-to-day instructional and program management activities. particularly in recruiting non-traditional students, scheduling instructional programs, serving special/exceptional needs students, etc.
