I learned about the PAC and how it can help to support teacher and students by bridging the gap between industry & collegiate partners and the classroom

I learned about multiple early opportunities for students to earn college credit(s) including credit by exam, dual or concurrent enrollment and articulation agreements.

This content is geared toward post secondary program. At the hs level we encourage teachers to offer the recommended credentials multiple times per year if possible. This will position students to be able to earn stackable credentials by the end of the program.  

I now better understand how credentialing benefit students. I appreciated the list of scaffolding idea that will help instructor differentiate instruction.

The program of study is non duplicative and vertically aligned. This benefit both students and teachers.

I am an administrator, not a classroom teacher. Reflecting on my past teaching experience engaging students in relevant and meaningful dialogue to identify what knowledge they already have is the start to establishing their foundation skills. Scaffolding is a instructional strategy that will allow students to work along side the teacher until they build independence to work on their own. 

The program of study could be used to market the CTE program by outlining all of the course at the HS and post secondary institution that student could take. By enrolling, student will be able to earn skills and an industry recognized credential.

I learned that backwards design will more effectively help me plan lessons and formative assessments to inform my instruction and ready my students for summatives. 

Business and industry partners are more likely to participate in advisory and  BILT advisory groups when there are clear expectations set forth. I have found that not only setting timelines to my board members, but also giving them jobs and sharing expectations results in the best committee members.

I will be encouraging my programs across the state to take a closer look at their advisory boards to include not only diversity in the areas that their boards represent, but also into the make up when it comes to size of business, demographics, and abilities
