Home Economics The family is the institution basic to all cultures. One of the goals of education is the preparation for per¬ sonal and family living. Homemaking education has always been concerned with the well being of individuals and families; therefore, it makes a unique contribution for intelligent and effec¬ tive family and community living. In the instructional program, ex¬ periences are provided which offer opportunity for participation in solving personal and family problems in re¬ lationships, management, housing, child development, goo d nutrition, clothing, and health. Emphasis is given to creating and appreciating beauty, to working to¬ gether democratically, to establishing values, to making intelligent choices, to managing resources--time, energy and money, and developing house¬ keeping skills.
