Student experiences in this course will involve the study of communication, the science of agriculture, plants, animals, natural resources, and agricultural mechanics. Students will solve problems, conduct research, analyze data, work in teams, and take responsibility for their work, actions, and learning. The course is structured so students will have an overview of the fields of study in agriculture. Students will develop connections between their lessons and supervised agricultural experience and FFA resulting in an informed, well-rounded agricultural education student. Supervised agricultural experience, The Agricultural Experience Tracker, and FFA will be integrated, as appropriate throughout.
