SUMMARY:Literacy For CTE
DESCRIPTION:Event Details:\n\nLevel 2\nNo prerequisite\nThis class is designed for all CTE teachers\nOption B approved course\n\nResearch and experience show that implementing effective reading and terminology practices directly impacts student academic success. CTE students with strong reading and terminology skills are able to make connections to new content quicker\, perform better on certifications and assessments\, and engage more readily in professional communication in industry. \nThis course is designed to equip teachers to use their program instructional terminology along with high-yield vocabulary practices to plan and teach in both the class and hands-on settings. Whereas technical reading and performance-based literacy focus on standards for reading\, writing\, listening\, and speaking\, this course takes a deeper look at using effective reading and terminology strategies. \nUpon successful completion of the course\, which includes submission of homework\, participants will receive an ADE certificate for 15 professional development clock hours\, which equates to one (1) semester hour of coursework.
