21st Century Learning and Workforce Readiness
It makes best sense, as a CTE (Career Tech Ed) teacher myself, to look toward the 11 Elements of a High Quality CTE program template for standards and areas of focus regarding workforce readiness. CTE is expressly focused on this area of learning, as well as promoting 21st Century skills. View the entire template by clicking on the image above.
11 ElementsI have only listed the sub categories that apply and left off the ones that are not applicable to blogging.
