The Clusters And their Pathways David Agnew ASU-Jonesboro

Objectives Name the 16 clusters. Match career pathways to the correct cluster name.

Cluster Facts: Old and New Clusters are a means of organizing or categorizing all job or occupations. Developed by the U.S. Office of Education Until year 2000 there were 15 clusters. In 2000 the USOE put forth a new system which was 16 clusters. This was more than just adding another number it was a reorganization and redistribution of jobs or occupations into new clusters.

Old 15 Cluster System Agri-business & Natural Resources Health Business and Office Public Service Communications & Media Transportation Construction Consumer & Homemaking Environmental Fine Arts & Humanities Personal Services Hospitality & Recreation Manufacturing Marine Science Marketing & Distribution

NEW -- 16 Clusters Systems Agriculture & Natural Resources Architecture & Construction Arts, Audio, Video. Technology & Communications Business & Administration Education & Training Finance Government & Public Administration Health Science Hospitality & Tourism Human Services Information Technology Law & Public Safety Manufacturing Retail wholesale Sales & Service Scientific Research & Engineering Transportation. Distribution, & Logistics

Comparison of Old & New System Don’t get cross eyed trying to figure this out– this was not an exact science 15 Old Agri-business & Natural Resources Health Business and Office Public Service Communications & Media Transportation Construction Consumer & Homemaking Environmental Fine Arts & Humanities Personal Services Hospitality & Recreation Manufacturing Marine Science Marketing & Distribution 16 New Agriculture & Natural Resources Architecture & Construction Arts, Audio, Video.

Distribution, & Logistics

Cluster Components: Old and New… In the old 15 cluster system there were divisions called job families. These were subcategories under the cluster titles. NEW 16 cluster system these are called job pathways instead of families Example job pathways for the Finance Cluster with new system: Banking and Finance Financial Planning Insurance Services

Pneumonic For many years a good, easy Pneumonic was used by teachers in AR for the old 15cluster system. When the new 16 cluster system came along in 2001, my summer co class developed a couple of their own Pneumonics as a class assignment. I have 2 I will share. The first was presented at CO Conference in Summer 2001 by Allie Brooks, then student and later the CO teacher at Brookland. The second was developed by 2 ag guys and a coach at the DeQueen site. The next slide is the start of the official presentation given at the co conference by the State Committee to introduce the new 16 system to CO. It is very good and can also be found on the ArCOTA Website.

Should your students know the clusters? Two points of views…..Yes and No Yes --- The purpose of CO is to give students an overview of the world of work. The 12,000 or so jobs need to be arranged in some logical order so that students can research and study careers in a logical manner. But the knowledge that there are 16 clusters may be more important than naming them all. No --- Knowing the cluster is not that important. This is really useless knowledge that waste the student time to learn.

How can I teach them the clusters? Simple memorize Have them work on this on their own and then give rewards for those who learn first Have then either recite in class or have them write on paper. Use some classroom group recitation activities. Game(s) Circle of chairs each person states one and then next person says previous one and one more…. Write on board and erase a little as you all repeat them out loud Pneumonic(s) A system to help lead lists by using first letter of word(s).

This works for some people….. The next two are systems developed in class. You can develop you own as well. Some people prefer to think in terms of there are three “A”s or “M”s and then remember all of the “A”s, etc..

Career Pathways The 16 clusters are divided into pathways. A cluster will have from 2 to 7 pathways. The next slide has all 16 clusters and their pathways. Review each cluster and pathway and realize there is some overlap in terms. Ex. Marketing is a cluster but under Business Management and Administration there is also a Marketing pathway.
