Information Tech & STEM = 40% of all pathway growth

1. Double Up is allowed for “any” two classes that are technical and/or application courses and in the same Pathway (and strand).

2. Nesting is allowed ‐ If a school deems it necessary to nest CTE courses in a Pathway, the school must contact the Pathway consultant and gain written approval  (or email).

3. One independent study course can be doubled or nested with a technical and/or an application level CTE course(s) without causing the courses eligible for .5 state‐weighted CTE funding to lose funding.  

• Kansas Waiver was approved.

• Moving from NCLB

• CTE is identified under rigor, but can be linked to many other components.

• CTE includes:• Integration of CTE and Academics • Partnerships (B&I, Post Secondary, Community)• Career Awareness and Guidance (K‐12)• Support and Recognition (CTE students/programs)• Innovation (Support for and encouraging best practice)• Long Term Planning (Continual improvement)• Instructional Practice (Classroom links to skills, certifications)

• Currently have statewide agreements with 11 postsecondary institutions

• 74 total statewide agreements• 27 Pathways have statewide agreements

• Considerations:*Make sure your local sequence meets terms of the 

agreement*Choose agreements that your students may actually use*Advertise ALL appropriate agreements to your students, 

even if only listing one on pathway application*May list multiple agreements (local & statewide) on 

application, but must create separate POS for each.

Engineering Pathway• Historic leader in CTE Curriculum for STEM and Technology

• Historically largest standards body for CTE Technology

• Goals• Provide a standards‐based K‐12 program that ensures that all students 

are technologically literate.• Provide opportunities for all students without regard to gender or 

ethnic origin.• Provide clear standards and expectations for increasing student 

achievement in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.• Provide leadership and support that will produce continuous 

improvement and innovation in the program.• Restore America's status as the leader in innovation.• Provide a program that constructs learning from a very early age and 

culminates in a capstone experience that leads students to become the next generation of engineers, technologists, innovators, and designers.

• Organizing Principles• The program is organized around ten principles. These principles are very large 

concepts that identify major content organizers for the program. In order of importance, the seven organizing principles are:

• Engineering through design improves life.• Technology and engineering have affected, and continues to affect everyday life.• Technology drives invention and innovation and is a thinking and doing process.• Technologies are combined to make technological systems.• Technology creates issues and impacts that change the way people live and interact.• Engineering and technology are the basis for improving on the past and creating the 

future.• Technology and engineering solve problems. • Technology and engineering use inquiry, design and systems thinking to produce 

solutions. • Technological and engineering design is a process used to develop solutions for 

human wants and needs • Technological applications create the designed world.

• Readiness Training

• Core Training

• Ongoing Training

readiness trainingDesigned to develop a baseline for all teachers prior to attending Core Training through the assessment of skill sets and delivery of any necessary remedial training.

PLTW Training

core trainingLovingly referred to as PLTW’s “boot camp,” this intense training focuses on the PLTW teaching model and course content

Designed to empower teachers with the confidence, understanding, and knowledge necessary to teach the curriculum. A teacher is only able to teach a course after successful completion of Core Training.

PLTW Core

ongoing trainingDesigned to provide additional training for teachers to further their understanding of related course tools, content, and concepts after the completion of Core Training.
