I learned the importance of selecting and implementing the appropriate curriculum that is aligned with a state's CTE standards. Also, the importance of sequencing to ensure students take classes that build upon on another so there's a continuum of learning both in the classroom and through work-based learning, internships and apprenticeships. Partnering with industry, community partners, and the business curriculum is essential to creating real-world experiences and opportunities for students get hands on experience in their field of interest.
