I learned that the “Situation to Impact” process helps identify specific challenges and focus on measurable outcomes. I plan to apply it by targeting areas when remote CTE labs are needed which will hopefully improve instruction more effective.

I learned that sustaining growth in a PLC requires ongoing collaboration, reflection, and using student data to guide decisions. I plan to apply this by sharing strategies, reflecting on my lessons, and using feedback from my team to improve instruction.

I learned that teacher-driven growth is most effective when it focuses on reflection and collaboration in the present moment. I plan to apply this by using PLC conversations and real-time feedback to make small, intentional changes to improve my instruction and student learning.
 
 
 
 

“Ready, Set, Pause” reminds teams to slow down, reflect, and align their efforts. I’ll apply this by scheduling regular check-ins to review progress and adjust plans.

PLCs help educators work together for lasting improvement and shared goals. I’ll focus on promoting collaboration and clear purpose in my CTE Culinary Arts team.

Technical skills and soft skills like communication. I’ll focus on providing real-world experiences and mentoring to better prepare students.

Retention keeps CTE students engaged; transition helps them move into careers or college. I’ll apply this by offering career support like mentoring and job prep.

I learned that the Preparation stage is about gaining skills and experience for a career, while the Commitment stage means deciding to follow that path and staying focused. I plan to help students set goals and find real-world learning opportunities to support their commitment.

Assessment helps CTE students identify their interests and strengths. Investigation lets them explore careers through research or real-world experiences. I plan to use both to guide students toward informed career choices.  Career cluster meetings will be used to help students and professionals in the industry of interest with any questions you may have.  It’s also a great step towards networking.

Question: What low-cost ways do you use to help students explore careers?
