SUMMARY:Using Rubrics to Increase Student Success
DESCRIPTION:CTE courses are performance-based.  When teachers let students know exactly how their work will be evaluated\, the students’ level of performance always improves. Come and participate in a hands-on activity that uses a rubric\, determine where the rubric made a positive difference in your performance\, and then design a rubric for one of your own student projects with guided support and feedback. Bring the assignment for one of your student projects and your current grading criteria for that project with you to help get this practical day started. \n\nInstructor:  Cathy Carey\nFor: All CTE Teachers\nADE Credit Available:  Yes\nOne Semester Hour (SH) Credit\nSatisfies Professional Knowledge\n(PK) deficiencies\n\n\nCourse Length: 1 day + homework\n\n\nSpring 2021\n\n\n\n\nDates:\nFebruary 16\, 2021\n(One-day + homework)\n\n\n\n\nSummer 2021\n\n\n\n\nDates:\nSaturday\, May 1\, 2021\n(One-day + homework)\n\n\n\nTime: 8:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. each day with a 30-minute lunch

SUMMARY:Technical Skills Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Student Success on the Technical Skills Assessment Matters! Your school earns A-F points for students who complete a CTE program and pass the TSA.
