Connecting Math with Career and Technical Education (CTE) Curriculum
Information Technology, & Business Focus

This training will utilize a researched approach to improve Math integration in your Career and Technical Education (CTE) instruction. In the original Math-in-CTE research study, students in the classrooms of teachers trained in this model performed significantly better on standardized math tests and community college math placement tests than students who received the regular CTE curriculum. Students also improved their math skills without losing the technical skills needed for college and career readiness. Math-in-CTE is not a curriculum but a process through which the math that naturally occurs in the CTE curriculum is enhanced. CTE teachers are never asked to replace what they already teach or to superimpose math that does not belong in their courses. This training structures time and a process for CTE teachers to collaborate with math teacher partners to integrate their curricula and identify the intersection of CTE and math concepts. This work leads to the development of curriculum maps from which teachers then create math-enhanced CTE lessons using a seven-element pedagogic framework and develop a plan for integrating those lessons naturally into their courses.
