Your First Year as a CTE Teacher (Part 1) --> Developing an Understanding of CTE
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
I learned about the structured approach to CTE.
The history of cte and career clusters is very interesting
To have quality CTE the industry needs to be the driver for the content learned.
I agree to incorporating more for advancement and assessing frequently.
I learned a lot of history of CTE and about the Perkins law.
I learned that CTE students have higher graduation rates than traditional students. CTE programs are focused, hands-on, and provide invaluable career training and exposure to students.
I learned that CTE has been around since the 18th Century and the importance behind it. I learned that their are different subdivisions and career clusters and allowing the kids all the hands on activity.
CTE has been around for quite awhile but has become more well-known through the years. I learned quite a bit about the careeer clusters and sub clusters. I agree with the statements of the importance of knowing the career opportunities not only locally, but also the state and region.
I've learned that CTE has been around for a long time and is a bridge for student success.
I am new to CTE. The history of CTE is interesting. The Career Clusters are the most interesting to me so far.
Enjoying the history and collaboration between CTE and traditional education ideas.
It was interesting to see when CTE began. Encouraged to see that most states are beginning to use the term pathways, which will help students that move from state to state on their journey.
I learned that CTE connects academic learning with real-world skills, helping students prepare for both college and careers. "High Quality CTE, and the 12 elements". These elements help students prepare for both college and careers. I plan to apply this by integrating more hands-on, career-focused activities and encouraging the students to explore CTE pathways that match their interests. CTE boosts engagement and supports diverse learners.
I have learned that I really need to incorporate steps for advancement. I can start these steps as early as my middle school kids and advance each year so the kids are ready for post-secondary education. I need to develop a good evaluation tool to make sure I am being effective and the kids are getting all they need to follow a POS.
"High Quality CTE" learning this catch phrase and the 12 elements that go along with it really gave me the understanding of the different sections of my whole program and that everything taught is under each of these elements.
I recently attended First Camp and learned so much more about Career and Technical Education (CTE). It helped me deepen my understanding of how CTE connects students to real world skills and future careers. I am especially excited to apply the new teaching strategies I learned, such as using more hands on, project based learning and incorporating industry relevant scenarios into my lessons. These approaches will help engage my students more effectively and better prepare them for the workforce.
I am new to CTE and developing a better understanding of how it works
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.
