Participants will work collaboratively and collectively to consider what makes CTE different and so powerful for our students. The CTE community all know that CTE teachers often approach their instruction from a project based learning perspective delivered through a focus on hands-on learning. What does this look like as we consider the use of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to design and deliver engaging, rigorous learning experiences? Our power of CTE increases when we design learning experiences that not only are accessible for students but challenge our students to become more autonomous and self-directed in their learning. Most importantly CTE is preparing our students for their next steps with skills that our industry partners will appreciate in their future employees.
