This module gave me a cleaner framework for the three areas CTE pedagogy actually breaks into (engaging curriculum and instruction, classroom and lab management, and assessment), and the pedagogy-versus-andragogy distinction is the piece I'll use most, since my teachers work with high schoolers but their own industry training was adult, self-directed learning, and naming that gap explains why some struggle to translate expertise into instruction. To apply it, I'll build that three-area frame into the curriculum maps and PD we're producing this summer, so scope and sequence, lab management routines, and authentic industry-aligned assessment are treated as distinct skills teachers develop rather than one blurred thing, and I'll lean on the management piece specifically since the module names lack of preparation as the top reason new teachers leave, which is exactly the risk with my industry-from hires.
Vision 25 was great and a perfect example of how to continue ones education while teaching
I've learned that teachers must be opened minded and reflective. Likewise, they should seeking continuous learning and find ways to enhance their pedagogy.
