Reinventing and Strengthening Career and Technical Education
Changes in Education
Changes in Education…
• Changes in Education– NCLB
• Relevance & Rigor
• Accountability
• High School Reform
Reinventing High Schools• Establish a clear system wide goal of career and college
readiness for all students; Dramatically improve how and where academic content is taught; Create incentives for students to pursue the core curriculum in an interest-based context; Support high quality teaching in all content areas source: Association of Career and Technical Education, Jan 06
• Establish clear and rigorous standards aligned with curricula and entrance requirements to post-secondary ed and careers; emphasize project-based learning; connect curriculum to real-world context source: A Call to Action, Transforming High School for All Youth, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Changes in Education…
• Changes in Education– NCLB
• Relevance & Rigor• Accountability
– Colorado Changes• CSAP –Math, Science, English• College Entrance Requirements (HEAR)
Academic Entrance Requirements• Phase II: (2010 Graduates)• English
4• Mathematics (Algebra I level and higher)
4• Natural/Physical Sciences (two units must be lab-based) 3• Social Sciences (at least one unit of U.S. or world history)
3• Foreign Language (must be same language)
2• Academic Electives (see note below) _
2• TOTAL 18
• Note 1: An academic unit, often referred to as a Carnegie unit, is equivalent to one full year of credit in a specific subject.
• Note 2: Please click on our Guide to Courses for examples of acceptable pre-collegiate courses and academic electives.
Academic Electives: (2 units required in 2008; 2 units academic electives and 2 units foreign language required in 2010)
Approved career and technical education courses with content comparable to courses meeting Colorado’s Model Content Standards and industry specific/CTE standards are counted as academic electives.
