DESCRIPTION:Brian Jacob\, Walter H. Annenberg Professor of Education Policy
  and professor of public policy\, economics\, and education\, University o
 f Michigan\, will present "Why Choose Career Technical Education? Disentan
 gling Student Preferences from Program Availability" as part of the CPR Se
 minar Series.Abstract:This paper presents the first evidence of how studen
 ts make career technical education (CTE)&nbsp\;course-taking decisions. Am
 ong the universe of Michigan high-schoolers we find large disparities&nbsp
 \;in CTE access and participation by gender\, race\, and income. We decomp
 ose participation&nbsp\;gaps between supply (access) and demand (preferenc
 es) with a simple discrete choice model.&nbsp\;We find that student prefer
 ences for CTE content drive participation gaps by gender\, inequities&nbsp
 \;in access drive gaps by income\, and school-level supply and demand fact
 ors combine to create&nbsp\;the gaps by race. Policy simulations highlight
  the importance of accessible CTE delivery&nbsp\;models within comprehensi
 ve high schools.
