Creating a Quality PathwayImprovement Plan

Pathway Assessment Rubric

Developed in response to requests from schools for guidance with:1. Creating meaningful

improvement plans2. Engaging advisory

committee members

Pathway Assessment Rubric• Voluntary• Will not be shared with

KSDE• BEST PRACTICE –

Teacher(s) of a Pathway complete the assessment along with Advisory Committee

• Contains four components of a quality Pathway(all four are part of a draft of the CTE Accreditation Model) • Partnerships• Physical Environment• Instructional Practices• Professional Development

IV. Instructional Strategies

A. Instruction is balanced between classroom & laboratory instruction, experiential learning, and leadership & personal development

Missing or non-existent. Needs Improvement—One component of the classroom and

laboratory instruction, experiential learning, and leadership and personal development dominate the curriculum, while others are minimally addressed or ignored.

Improving—While one component of the curriculum is clearly dominating the instruction, there is a plan for bringing the deficient area(s) into balance with input from the advisory committee and state staff.

Promising-Evidence exists that an attempt is made to balance the curriculum across all components utilizing input from the local advisory committee.

Exemplary—A well-planned balance exists among all curriculum components. The balance is documented and is a result of collaboration with all stakeholders and state requirements.

Component

Indicator

Stages

• Think of one Pathway• Assess the Pathway in only ONE component• Under each indicator, check boxes next to the

stage that best fits the current status of the Pathway

“Score” a Pathway

Reflection Questions

What indicators did you score

at the exemplary stage?

(These will need to be maintained to

remain at this stage)

Which indicators did you score at the improving or promising stage? (These are indicators of inclusion in your pathway improvement plan.)

Which indicators did you score at the struggling or missing (non-existent) stage?

(These are considered critical areas your pathway improvement plan should address.)

• Use the results from the Pathway assessment rubric to develop SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, timely) goals for each component

• Very similar to the new template of the Pathway Improvement Plan in the Pathway application

3 yr. Pathway Improvement Plan Template

• If you feel the Pathway assessment rubric would be a valuable tool, please use it during your fall Advisory Committee Meeting

• More time and training will take place during the Fall CTE Drive-In Workshops
