✨ Notice to all my #CTE Career and Technical Education professionals: "Over the last year, Advance CTE, the organization representing CTE state leaders, has been working on a process to modernize their National Career Clusters® Framework. After a year of input, research and development, and testing with business and industry leaders and CTE professionals, a draft modernized National Career Clusters® Framework was released by Advance CTE last week. The draft Framework is now public for validation from leaders, educators, industry professionals, and connected partners in the CTE community. Your voice is needed!"

Here are 5 factors to consider when evaluating a school's online degree programs, according to EdAssist partner Oregon State University Ecampus — a national leader in delivering high-quality learning experiences online: 👍 Credibility: Is the school accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education? And is it well-respected within the landscape of online teaching and learning. 👍 Rigor: Does the institution offer rigorous online courses that will challenge you in meaningful ways? 👍 Innovation: Look for universities that are doing things that others aren’t. Enroll at a school that pushes the boundaries of what's possible. 👍 Built for online: Online classes should be purpose-built for the online environment. This sounds simple, but it’s not a common practice. 👍 Student-centered: As an online learner, you deserve a team of professionals that can meet your unique learning needs. Keeping these factors in mind will help you choose an online degree program that fits your needs and sets you up for success. Read the full article for more details 👇

Senior instructional designer Sandy Powell shares insights on the skills portion of the Knowledge, Skills, & Attributes (KSA) framework now integrated into new BYU Independent Study high school courses. 1. Collaboration: In today’s complex work environment, collaboration brings together diverse skills and experiences. It fosters agile problem-solving and encourages responsibility, feedback, and cooperation. 2. Communication: Effective communication is crucial for academic and career success. Proficiency in digital media and strong written skills are essential. Active listening builds positive relationships. 3. Creativity: Idea generation sparks creativity. Turning imaginative concepts into practical outcomes refines students' creative abilities for real-world application. 4.

At ASU+GSV Summit this week, I heard lots of discussion on “student success” initiatives.  I heard businesses and higher education leaders alike sharing practices for increasing retention by adding advising or career services, emergency financial aid programs, and mental health services.  All of those ideas impact students one at a time, and typically put the onus on the student to opt in.  Additionally, those ideas are all costly and typically requiring hiring new staff on campus to support these initiatives.  Why not meet the students’ needs where they are, in the classroom?  Why not develop those staff already on campus, the faculty?  Association of College and University Educators (ACUE)'s solution delivers 4% higher retention of first-year students, $600K boost in first-year revenue, and a 3% lower DFW rate in courses (backed by a number of research studies).  Learn more via our impact studies and our faculty mindset brief, which I linked below.  I’d love to have a conversation on how ACUE can support your student success and faculty engagement initiatives in your strategic plans! https://lnkd.in/gf4XBFXK https://lnkd.in/gHvjN6hS
