They are Colorado’s best kept secret for: • Relevant & rigorous learning • Raising achievement among all students • Strengthening Colorado’s workforce & economy 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials6 Colorado Career & Technical Education serves more than 116,000 Colorado secondary students annually through 1,200 programs in 160 school districts, 270 High Schools, 8 Technical Centers, 16 Community Colleges & 3 Technical Colleges. One of every three Colorado high school students gained valuable experiences by their enrollment in these programs. ALIGNMENT REQUIRED BY SB 08-212 22-7-1005. Preschool through elementary and secondary education - aligned standards - adoption - revisions. 2(b): In developing the preschool through elementary and secondary education standards, the State Board shall also take into account any Career & Technical Education standards adopted by the State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Education, created in Section 23-60-104, C.R.S., and, to the extent practicable, shall align the appropriate portions of the preschool through elementary and secondary education standards with the Career and Technical standards. STANDARDS REVIEW AND ALIGNMENT PROCESS Beginning in the fall of 2008, the Colorado Community College System conducted an intensive standards review and alignment process that involved: NATIONAL BENCHMARK REVIEW Colorado Career & Technical Education recently adopted the Career Cluster and Pathway Model endorsed by the United State Department of Education, Division of Adult and Technical Education. This model provided access to a national set of business and industry validated knowledge and skill statements for 16 of the 17 cluster areas. California and Ohio provided the comparative standards for the Energy cluster • Based on this review Colorado CTE has moved from program-specific to Cluster & Pathway based standards and outcomes • In addition, we arrived at fewer, higher, clearer and more transferrable standards, expectations and outcomes. COLORADO CONTENT TEAMS REVIEW The review, benchmarking and adjusting of the Colorado Cluster and Pathway standards, expectations and outcomes was through the dedicated work of Content Teams comprised of secondary and postsecondary faculty from across the state. Participation by instructors from each level ensured competency alignment between secondary and postsecondary programs. These individuals also proposed the draft academic alignments for math, science reading, writing and communication, social studies (including Personal Financial Literacy) and postsecondary and workforce readiness (PWR.) ACADEMIC ALIGNMENT REVIEW 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials7 In order to validate the alignment of the academic standards to the Career & Technical Education standards, subject matter experts in math, science, reading, writing and communication, and social studies were partnered with career & technical educators to determine if and when a true alignment existed. CURRENT STATUS • One set of aligned Essential skills to drive Postsecondary and Workforce Readiness inclusion in all Career & Technical Education programs. • 52 pathways with validated academic alignments • 12 pathways with revised standards ready for alignment (currently there are no approved programs in these pathways) • 21 pathways where no secondary programming currently exists. Standards and alignments will be developed as programs emerge. • Available for review at: www.coloradostateplan.com/content_standards.htm Colorado Career & Technical Education Standards Academic Alignment Reference System The Career & Technical Education standards have been organized by Career Cluster (17) and Pathway (81). In addition, a set of “Essential Skills” was developed to ensure the Postsecondary and Workforce Readiness within any cluster or pathway. These workforce readiness skills are applicable to all career clusters and should form the basis of each CTE program. Organization Essential Skills There exists a common set of knowledge and skills that are applicable to all students regardless of which cluster or pathway they choose. This set of standards, is meant for inclusion in each program to enhance the development of postsecondary and workforce readiness skills. Career Cluster A Career Cluster is a grouping of occupations and broad industries based on commonalities. The 17 Career Clusters organize academic and occupational knowledge and skills into a coherent course sequence and identify pathways from secondary schools to two- and four-year colleges, graduate schools, and the workplace. Students learn in school about what they can do in the future. This connection to future goals motivates students to work harder and enroll in more rigorous courses. Career Pathway 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials8 Pathways are sub-groupings of occupations/career specialties used as an organizing tool for curriculum design and instruction. Occupations/career specialties are grouped into Pathways based on the fact that they require a set of common knowledge and skills for career success. Prepared Completer Competency This level targets the “big ideas” in each pathway. These are the competencies that all students who complete a CTE pathway must master to ensure their success in a postsecondary and workforce setting. Prepared Completer Competencies will not usually be “course” specific but grow with the student’s progression through the sequence of courses. Concept/Skill The articulation of the concepts and skills that indicates a student is making progress toward being a prepared completer. They answer the question: What do students need to know and be able to do? Evidence Outcome The indication that a student is meeting an expectation at the mastery level. How do we know that a student can do it? Pathway Abbreviation (4 Letter) Academic Alignments Academic alignments, where appropriate in Math, Reading, Writing and Communication, Science and Social Studies (including Personal Financial Literacy) were defined by CTE and academic subject matter experts using the following criteria: • It was a point where technical and academic content naturally collided; • The student must demonstrate adequate proficiency with the academic standard to perform the technical skill; and • It could be assessed for both academic and technical understanding. 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials9 Colorado’s CTE programs have had academic alignments dating back to the early 1990’s. While these alignments resulted in an increase in academic focus in CTE programs, the reality is that a true transformation in intentional teaching toward the academic standard was limited. With these alignments comes a new expectation: If a CTE instructor is teaching a CTE concept that has an identified alignment, they must also be intentional about their instruction of the academic standard. CCCS will be providing professional development and instructional resources to assist with the successful implementation of this new expectation. In addition, this expanded expectation will require increased collaboration between CTE and academic instructors to transform teaching and learning throughout each school. For each set of Cluster and Pathway standards, the academic alignments have been included and are separated by academic area. CCCS chose to align at the “Evidence Outcome” level. The aligned academic evidence outcome follows the CTE evidence outcome to which it has been aligned. For a sample, see Illustration A. 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials10 The academic standard number used in the alignments matches the Colorado Department of Education standards numbering convention. 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials11 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials12 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials13 2/2/2016 BVSD Curriculum Essentials14 Content Standards- CCCS Health Occupations – Sports Medicine STANDARD 1 EXPLORE THE FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF EXERCISE SCIENCE/SPORTS MEDICINE.
