Right now, countries like Germany focus on graduating their high school students with the equivalent of a technical degree from one of our community colleges, so that they're ready for a job. At schools like P-Tech in Brooklyn, a collaboration between New York Public Schools, the City University of New York, and IBM, students will graduate with a high school diploma and an associate degree in computers or engineering. We need to give every American student opportunities like this. QuickTime™ and a decompressor are needed to see this picture. Four years ago, we started Race to the Top – a competition that convinced almost every state to develop smarter curricula and higher standards, for about 1 percent of what we spend on education each year. Tonight, I'm announcing a new challenge to redesign America's high schools so they better equip graduates for the demands of a high-tech economy. We'll reward schools that develop new partnerships with colleges and employers, and create classes that focus on science, technology, engineering, and math – the skills today's employers are looking for to fill jobs right now and in the future.” -President Obama, State of the Union Address, February 12, 2013
- 13. ED’s Cradle to Career Agenda
- 14. Four Core Principles for the Transformation of CTE Transforming the Perkins program would add to key investments the Obama Administration already has made to align classroom teaching and learning with real-world business needs. These investments include $2 billion in Trade Adjustment Assistant grants to strengthen community college programs and workforce partnerships. In addition, transforming the Perkins program aligns with proposed investments that include $8 billion for the Community College to Career Fund aimed at training 2 million workers for high-growth industries, and $1 billion to help 500,000 (a 50-percent increase) high school students participate in career academies. The Obama Administration’s FY 2013 budget proposes a $1.1 billion investment to support the transformation of the Perkins program. For a copy of the Administration’s proposal, Investing in America’s Future: A Blueprint for Transforming Career and Technical Education,
- 15. Investing in America: A Blueprint for Transforming Career and Technical Education Includes key changes from the current Perkins Act and highlights the administration's proposal for reauthorization that will usher in a new era of rigorous, relevant and results-driven CTE shaped by four core principles—Alignment, Collaboration, Accountability and Innovation. QuickTime™ and a decompressor are needed to see this picture.
- 16. Four Core Principles for the Transformation of CTE Effective ALIGNMENT between CTE and labor market needs to equip students with 21st-century skills and prepare them for in-demand occupations in high-growth industry sectors •Clear Expectations for High-quality Programming: Provide states better guidance on establishing high-quality programs •A More Active Role for States: Empower states to identify the in-demand occupations in high-growth industry sectors on which CTE programs should focus
- 17. Opportunityindex.org Today, the most commonly discussed measure on economic strength and security are the GDP and the poverty rate. Both measures are too limited and do not provide communities the data they need to understand the progress they can make in boosting measures of economic mobility for Americans. This led us to our interest in developing an Opportunity Index that measures a number of indicators at the county and state levels that contribute to economic opportunity and mobility. We include indicators that have a demonstrated connection to expanding or restricting economic mobility and opportunity, which together help measure the opportunities that are present in different communities.
- 21. Four Core Principles for the Transformation of CTE Strong COLLABORATION among secondary and postsecondary institutions, employers, and industry partners to improve the quality of CTE programs •Consortia Funding: Establish consortia to ensure collaboration among secondary and postsecondary institutions •Private-sector Match: Use a match contribution to strengthen the participation of employers, industry, and labor partners in program design and execution
- 22. Four Core Principles for the Transformation of CTE Meaningful ACCOUNTABILITY for improving academic outcomes and building technical and employability skills in CTE programs, based upon common definitions and clear metrics for performance •Within-state Competition to Distribute Funds to Consortia: Provide states increased autonomy to select and fund high-quality programs responsive to regional labor-market needs •Common Definitions to Strengthen Data Systems and Close Equity Gaps for Participation: Use uniform definitions for participation and performance indicators to create high-quality data systems that enable meaningful comparisons and identification of equity gaps •Incentives for High Performance: Incentivize and reward local recipients that exceed performance targets
- 23. Four Core Principles for the Transformation of CTE Increased emphasis on INNOVATION supported by systemic reform of state policies and practices to support CTE implementation of effective practices at the local level •State Conditions for Success and Innovation: Ensure states have in place the policies and systems to support programs at the local level •A Competitive CTE Innovation and Transformation Fund: Develop and implement new practices and models at the local level and support systemic reforms at the state level

United States Department of Education, RESPECT Project “Our goal is to work with educators in rebuilding their profession—and to elevate the teacher voice in shaping federal, state and local education policy…Our larger goal is to make teaching not only America’s most important profession—but America’s most respected profession.”
- 29. Why RESPECT? R Recognizing E Educational S Success P Professional E Excellence C Collaborative T Teaching
- 30. What Does It All Mean? • Educational Success recognizes our commitment to improving student outcomes • Professional Excellence means that we will continuously sharpen our practice, and that we will recognize, reward, and learn from great teachers and school leaders. • Collaborative Teaching means that we will concentrate on shared responsibility and decision-making. Successful collaboration means creating schools where principals and teachers work and learn together in communities of practice, hold each other accountable, and lift each other to new levels of skill and competence.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Share the Brenda wishes she was present Share about the TAF position Share about Teaching Matters newsletter
- Wish them a happy CTE month! “ Join us as we celebrate CTE across America throughout the month of Feb.”
- Want to give a quick overview of ED, t his maybe a review for some, but I want to give an explanation of ED and it’s goals in order to frame the CTE initiatives, as there are many similarities between the “new” ED and CTE policy
- This maybe a review for some, but I want to give an explanation of ED and it’s goals in order to frame the CTE initiatives, as there are many similarities.
- We have limited power and resources…so how does ED effect education across America? And in a positive way, not like NCLB
- Shift from a regulator towards a facilitator of change and collaborator of success. The question is, how do we do that with out limited influence and funding?
- Area’s where ED wanted to change and improve
- Programs that have stemmed from this belief. Ensure educational funding Giving more control at the local level, especially in regards to accountability measures Rewarding innovation and outcomes (3-5) and rethinking the funding model Increase communication and influence from teachers
- Highest graduation rates since 1974 78.2 percent of high school students nationwide graduated on time, which is a substantial increase from the 73.4 percent recorded in 2005-6. ED is not responsible for this, teacher like you are, a new era in education is responsible, especially CTE teachers who are finding new ways to connect with students. Give a round of applause to yourselves as you are making a difference
- Even with these victories there is still much to be done. This is why CTE is so important! It is the future of our students and our countries success.
- CTE is getting more press and promotion at the Federal level (and at ED) than ever before. President Obama noted CTE education in his recent SOTU address, calling for students to be career ready
- No longer “College Ready” or “College Bound” the new scope is from Cradle to Career
- Education is the largest item increase in the 2013 budget Ensuring educational funding has been essential to this administration agenda
- Published April 19, 2012
- CTE must be tied to local-economical needs. It must serve a local purpose to fill employment needs
- It is essential that we understand the economic and employment needs of our local communities. This is an example of one tool to help determine areas for growth.
- Can be looked at state level
- Of at the local level to get a better understanding of the local economy
- At the local level a more detailed report can be examined. While not the best tool, it is an example of how local economies must be analyzed in order for proper CTE programs to be built
- CTE programs must have business partners in order to remain relevant and ensure that the skills we teach our kids are the skills they will need for future employment
- We must ensure that investments in CTE are creating employment and jobs as an outcome. We must ensure funding is spent correctly and in an meaningful way. To much money is spent on programs that do not are not valid CTE.
- You can see how the Blueprint of CTE contains the same beliefs as the overall vision of ED. More control at the local level paired with increased accountability, funding that rewards innovations and outcomes.
- A great place to find more information, learn how your state is doing, and get free CTE resources (including career clusters and common career technical core )
- Follow CTE month, find resources, stay abreast of CTE news and policy, and find ways to get involved and let your voice be heard in DC (the teachers voice is very important to ED…ie the RESPECT project)
