Session 9 - The Premier Delivery System

What are you curious about?

The activities we did today.

Do we need to submit PAAE and NAAE membership forms?

• These are free for students, so it would be beneficial to do so!

More about philosophy application in schools.

• Schools implement their mission, vision, and philosophies into their everyday classes. Schools implement their philosophies through their actions and activities.

Teaching styles.

• Interesting site, and there is a quiz at the end to find out your teaching style.

Standardized testing.

• There are many ways to approach standardized testing, but if we do our "jobs" as educators then students will perform well on these and other exams (practical applications, etc.).

Can working at my farm's open house count as student choice or hours of community service for class? 

• I believe we can count this as a portion of your requirements. Let's talk more about how/what you do in this operation.

How to improve my teacher philosophy?

• You will receive feedback on your draft, and hopefully you will continue to adjust your philosophy statement throughout the semester.

How to include all three circles in the classroom activities?

• Each lesson should include connections to FFA and SAE. There are many ways to do this, but you can often connect the content to leadership opportunities or career development events. The SAE portion of the class session can connect back to the record keeping portion of SAE or the application to SAE opportunities.
