SUMMARY:Grading And Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Level 2\nNo prerequisite\nThis class is designed for all CTE teachers.\n\nAssessing and grading are two different actions. Learn a variety of formative and summative assessment techniques. A major focus is how to assess student work using rubrics. This class will help you create a clear grading policy and develop a variety of ways to assess student learning. \nHow should students in CTE be assessed? How do we set up a fair grading system for both teachers and students? Learn about the wide variety of options that address both of these issues to help you develop both your own philosophy for grading as well as effective strategies for multiple ways to assess student learning and progress. You will also leave with a greater understanding of how to align testing and evaluation to your course outcomes and grading policies that will increase effective feedback for students. \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. \nLocation:\nSTART@West-MEC\n5405 N. 99th Ave\nGlendale\, AZ 85305 \nLink: https://pdcircle.west-mec.org/course/view/321 – Registration opens July 1\, 2023 \nDate: Oct. 10\, 2023 \nTime: 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. \nCost: $50

SUMMARY:Literacy for CTE
DESCRIPTION:Level 2\nThis class is designed for all CTE teachers.\n\nResearch and experience show that implementing effective reading and vocabulary practices directly impacts student academic success. CTE students with strong reading and vocabulary 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 vocabulary 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. \nLocation:\nSTART@West-MEC\n5405 N. 99th Ave\nGlendale\, AZ 85305 \nLink: https://pdcircle.west-mec.org/course/view/354 – Registration opens July 1\, 2023 \nDate: Oct. 12\, 2023 \nTime: 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. \nCost: $50
