10. Vision Statement: Every student an ethical, responsible citizen who seeks to understand and improve the world through engineering technology. Hi Lisa, welcome to robotics. Like I told you, you will enjoy your engineering pathway Robotics is so cool…cant wait to facebook this. 12 WOW, Check out that robot! Ms. K. are we going to learn how to build one?

11. Engineering SLC classes Intro. to Engineering & Design Principles of Engineering Digital Electronics Engineering Design and Development Bio-Technology 1 2

12. Digital Electronics Oh yeah its called linked learning! Check it out, in Physics we talked about the movement of robots. Hey there is math involved in creating robotics.. go figure! Duh.. Frita, and that is why in English we are learning about technical writing. 1 2 3 4

13. I never thought I would see all my students this excited and engaged about school! Hi Ms. K, Quadrant D learning has made school relevant. I got to give you props. You are the rage with all the students. 1 2 Thanks you made my day! 2

22. Example Student Outcome Chart Vision: Every student an ethical, responsible citizen who seeks to understand and improve the world through engineering technology. Mission: Incorporate engineering technology into every aspect of the educational process by: 1) Integrating career and technical education and engineering technology into core academic classes and the learning environment. 2) Utilizing technology in project- and problem-based instruction to enhance student learning and develop teamwork, communication, and leadership. 3) Providing a structured sequence of work-based learning opportunities.

23. Student Outcome Charts How were they created?

25. Summary Check for Understanding (Pair-share) –Why have student outcome charts been created? –How does information from industry get included into student outcome charts? –Share one other item that was interesting to you and why. Break (9:30 – 9:45) Back from Break –Activity: Using Student Outcome Charts

26. Activity: Using Student Outcome Charts At your table you have: Great Team Copies of 1 Student Outcome Chart from your site Making Connections with Student Outcome Charts- Individual Handout School Summary: Application of Student Outcome Charts (1 per site)

27. Activity: Using Student Outcome Charts Instructions for activity- Focused on the one Student Outcome Chart from your site –Individually: imagine you are part of that pathway. What connections can you find to what you are teaching? (Follow Handout) –Group: Discuss and complete school summary
