This is a general discussion for the following learning topic:
CTE High-Quality Framework: Sequencing & Articulation --> Articulation of Credit
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
What I took away from this module is the anatomy of an articulation agreement: a durable articulation agreement clearly spells out teacher qualifications, prerequisites, postsecondary entry requirements, course locations, tuition reimbursement, and the credit-transfer process. The transfer process has to be explicit and built in, or the credit stalls and students typically never claim it, nor feel that they are entitled to do so. I intend to apply it by using those six components as the spine when I sit down with our community college, and pinning down the credit-transfer process so the credit moves the moment a student earns the milestone.
Communication with the ones giving out the credit is aa huge part of making sure your students are receiving the credit they deserve for completing the course/program given to them
Communicate with the dual credit school that is linked with my class to be more cohesive with their program.
I learned about multiple early opportunities for students to earn college credit(s) including credit by exam, dual or concurrent enrollment and articulation agreements.
