Designing a Pre-Technology Program Using an Interdisciplinary Approach and Work Keys Assessment

这是一个为期三年的项目，旨在设计和开发一个使用跨学科方法的预技术计划;使用来自行业和适当技术的现实生活中的插图;形成强调协作学习的学习社区;使用工作关键标准评估学生的学习;并招募代表性不足的高中学生进入ATE计划。该项目汇集了奥农达加社区学院，三所地区高中，另外两所纽约社区学院，以及由联合广播电台领导的地方产业。关键组成部分是一个1学期的综合课程。它的重点是一组跨学科的模块化课程，包括电子技能，数学技能，写作技能和计算技能。其他组成部分是行业实习，教师培训和职业意识会议。实习将是该计划完成后的夏天。

This is a three-year project to design and develop a Pre-Technology program using an interdisciplinary approach; using real-life illustrations from industry and appropriate technology; forming learning communities that emphasize collaborative learning; assessing students' learning using work keys criteria; and recruiting underrepresented high school students into ATE programs. The project brings together Onondaga Community College, three area high schools, two additional New York community colleges, and local industries led by United Radio. The key component is a 1-semester integrated program. Its focus is a cluster of interdisciplinary, modular courses that include electronic skills, mathematical skills, composition skills and computing skills. Other components are Industry Internships, Teacher Training, and Career Awareness sessions. Internships will be the summer following completion of the program.
