Staying current is important. When I was in industry the “it” job was to work for the yellow pages and Twitter wasn’t even a thing. Today the YP is gone, and Twitter has become corrupt and goes by a new name. Navigating new tech is important across all industries as our students will be released into the new world, not the world we once knew.
I've learned how important for teachers to pour into themselves to increase their knowledge and understanding of the industry in which they teach. All CTE teacher should attend relevant and meaning professional development opportunities, build industry specific network or employer partner, join professional and or technical organizations all in an effort to stay current and abreast. I can encourage CTE teachers in my district to take advantage and seek out these trainings and or relationships.
