The tax, insurance, debt and budgeting concepts for different career paths are considerations I did not consider. It is important to keep those at the forefront when discussing with students financial literacy. 

There were new resources such as Bonzi that was listed that I did not know about. In the state I teach, personal finance is a graduation requirement so everyone takes it. Having good resources with varying types of content is helpful to keep it relevant to students. 

Always project a professional demeanor.

CTE assists teachers in gaining a better understanding of career and technical education. It also helps them to become more acclimated with their roles as teachers.

Case studies are a great way that I apply this in marketing with personal finance. I also use local experts in financial planning and insurance to speak to students on topics such as financial literacy and planning. 

Personal finance and financial literacy is unique to each individual's goals, family situation and life experiences. It is important to teach from a lens without bias and to tailor the teaching to different learning styles. 

Having a mentor is a great asset for getting your groove on.

Feedback for course navigation:

the up arrow on right hand side doesn't move the page up... had to scroll (drag and drop the cursor).

Having trouble with course navigation: the "next button" doesn't take me to next. The new lesson at the bottom of the page takes me to a new lesson, but doesn't update the course outline on page 1 (EC101 overview)... had to load the course overview and load each page to get it to check off that it was done. 

setting up rules right up front, being a good example for students by being in class early, being available for questions outside of class time, getting to know each students strengths and weaknesses.

Critical thinking has been a useful soft skill and often underdeveloped.  What I learned is how to inspire and develop my Students' critical thinking skills.
