Home Economics Careers & Technology Education(HECT) “HECT Leading the Way Towards Career AND College Readiness” Magnifying the Common Core in the HECT Program
Today we will……. • Review HECT Program Management Guide • Analyze and use CTE/HECT Curriculum Standards • Demonstrate ACE Strategy support • Apply use of Unit Plan Organizers (UPO) • Revealing the BIG IDEA through essential questions

Ingenious Questioning Strategies • Essential Questions • Constructed responses • ACE Strategy
Where to start? • Determine the “big ideas” • CA CTE Industry Sector Standards • California Common Core State Standards • Unpack the CTE Standards • Circle key nouns, adjectives, & verbs • Draft implied or stated big ideas based on those key words. • Critically analyze the course text • Work “backward” to determine what big ideas and/or EQ the text addresses
What makes a question “essential”? • Recurs throughout all our lives • Refers to core ideas & inquiries within a discipline • Helps students effectively inquire and make sense of important but complex ideas, knowledge, know-how • Engages a specific & diverse set of learners
Essential Questions • Have no simple “right” answer • Provoke & sustain inquiry • Address conceptual or philosophical foundations • Raise other important questions • Naturally & appropriately recur • Stimulate vital, ongoing rethinking • One that lies at the heart of a subject or a curriculum & promotes inquiry & uncoverage of a subject.
Types of Essential Questions • Overarching: Frame courses and programs of study around truly big ideas • Topical: Are unit specific but still promote inquiry GOOD TEACHING USES BOTH!
Use standards to write Overarching EQ’s EXAMPLE: Child Development Pathway Standards Example: • What are then essential aspects of early childhood education, child care, and development industry? • What is the Industries role instate and local economies?
Topical Essential Questions • Unit specific - used to guide individual units • Promote inquiry • Resist simple answers • Require explanation & justification
Use standards to writeTopical EQ’s EXAMPLE: Child Development Pathway Standards Example: • What are the components of professionalism? • How do we practice professionalism?
What is a constructed response? The TREND in national standards-based testing is to remove the ability for students to guess their answers • Emphasis on application of learning. • Students must provide evidence for how they get their answers and effective writing is required.
ACE Strategy A…Answer the question! C…Cite evidence from the text! E…Explain your citations! 13
Constructed Response Explain the benefits of utilizing constructed response questions rather than multiple choice. C…Cite evidence from the text! A… Answer the question! E…Explain your citations!
New Model CTE Standards • Fewer, clearer, deeper • Research and evidence based • Reasonable in scope • Essential, rigorous, clear, specific and coherent • Aligned with postsecondary and work expectations • Measurable
HECT Standards Found in 3 Industry Sectors • Education, Child Development, & Family Services • Fashion and Interior Design • Hospitality, Tourism, & Recreation
CFS Programs: Found in 7 content areas • First course in the sequence of articulated instruction • Includes exploratory, introductory, and concentration courses • Supported by district or Perkins funds • Taught by teachers with a CA credential or equivalent in Home Economics Careers & Technology Education
Hero programs: found in 9 pathways • Career focused • Capstone Courses (11-12 grade) • Supported by district, Perkins or ROCP • Taught by teachers who have a credential and industry knowledge and experience
Integration with Common Core State Standards • Creativity • Communication • Collaboration • Critical thinking
HECT Course Sequence Exploratory (Middle School/Junior High School) Introductory (High School) Concentration (High School) Capstone (High School & ROCP)
Rigorous Curriculum Design • Depth of Knowledge (DOK) • Tiered Vocabulary • Unit Plan Organizer(UPO)
What is Rigor? • Scaffolding thinking • Planning for thinking • Assessing thinkingabout content • Recognizing the level of thinkingstudents demonstrate • Managing the teaching/ learning level for the desired thinking level • More or harder worksheets • AP or honors courses • The higher level book in reading • More work • More homework Rigor is… Rigor is NOT…

What’s a BIG idea? • Concepts • Themes • Issues/Debates • Problems/Challenges • Processes • Theories • Paradoxes • Assumptions/Perspectives
From Big Idea to EQ…Making the Connection Big Idea Topic or Content Standard Understanding Essential Question
Quad D Key Assignment Requires Students To: • Complete an assignment that covers an extended period of time, involves ongoing instruction and research, and uses problem-solving/design process to address assigned project or problem. • Uses technology/software/equipment applicable to field.
Requires teachers To: • Complete ongoing formative assessments with feedback and a summative written and performance evaluation that assesses both technical and academic skills of the assignment.
Lesson Plan:Begin with the End in Mind Students use competence and knowledge to create and implement solutions Student thinks, analyzes, problem solves, creates solutions Student Thinks Student Thinks/ Works Experiences that will facilitate student’s learning What students need to know & why Teacher Works* Student Works
How do we define a key assignment • One that meets Quad D criteria! • It’s that easy!
