Merging PLTW with Existing Technology Education and Science Programs J. Michael Brown - CEA Master Teacher Josh Jaworowski - IED Master Teacher Kirkwood High School

Program Write Up Having "turf war" problems implementing your PLTW program? Are you worried about the shift of students taking current technology education and science courses in your school? Attend this presentation that highlights a school merging PLTW into multiple departments while providing the best options for students and teachers.

Our Individual Story Shop Teachers taught us Industrial Technology what we major in and taught for 5 years. Tech Ed/Engineering is what we currently teach Previous experience…Welding, Auto, Woods, Drafting, Technology, Science and Technology, Material Processes

Our School Story Kirkwood High School Industrial Technology Program 2002 – Woods I,II,III, IV – Metals – Home and Auto Maintenance – Intro to Industrial Tech – Engineering Graphics I,II – Architectural Drafting PLTW push from administration and community.

Fitting Tech Ed in with PLTW Module Bust Removal of classes or infusion of math and science? IED Crossover Fewer shop classes with more critical thinking

Transition Intro to Industrial Tech = Principles Of Eng Engineering Graphics I,II = Intro to Eng Design Architectural Drawing = Civil Eng and Architecture Reduction of Industrial Tech classes – One Woodworking and Carpentry class Arts-Design, Woodturning, Capstone Project – One Precision Machining Class Plasma cutter, Mill, Lathe, Welding, Hand Tools

Too Many Preps Digital Electronics Computer Integrated Manufacturing Biotechnical Engineering Aerospace Engineering EDD Capstone Course

Staffing Science-Biotechnical Engineering and Aerospace Math-Digital Electronics Technology Ed Students-Where will they go? It is not a numbers game, it is about getting the right students.
