6 Introduction to Integrating Science into CTE Classrooms, Part 1

Learn how to integrate science into your existing CTE curriculum by identifying science embedded in the curriculum, recognizing the scientific practices, and understanding the five core principles and six essential elements of an effective science-enhanced CTE lesson plan. Please note, this is part 1 of a two-part course on integrating Science into CTE classrooms. Participants must complete both parts 1 and 2 to meet the professional development requirements for CPE hours.This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered. The course will be available for credit in summer 2020.
7 Introduction to Integrating Science into CTE Classrooms, Part 2

Before you begin this part, please ensure you have successfully completed Introduction to Integrating Science Part 1 in order to meet the professional development requirements of the course for CPE hours. Apply effective strategies to an existing lesson CTE lesson plan to begin integrating science into your curriculum. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered. The course will be available for credit in summer 2020.
5 Introduction to Integrating Math into CTE Classrooms, Part 1

84 CTE Work-Based Learning

This course introduces basic laws, rules, and procedures relevant to teaching Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses that involve work-based learning (WBL) at the secondary school level in Texas. Because state and federal laws change frequently, it also explains how to find current laws, rules, and guidelines related to WBL. Teachers will learn what authentic WBL is and how to ensure students learn the skills and knowledge appropriate for their career pathway through collaborative partnerships with local employers. This material is available for view only in the Texas Gateway and a certificate is not awarded. Referenced quizzes are not available.
Newton's Second Law
Students will work in partners to investigate Newton’s second law by testing a series of experiments with varying conditions.
Demonstration and Analysis of Dihybrid Crosses
The students will review related vocabulary, watch the teacher model a dihybrid cross, and then perform a dihybrid cross and answer questions about the outcomes with a partner.
Convergent Plate Boundaries
Students will design and test models that will identify crustal features formed by convergent plate boundaries.
Full Speed Ahead
Students will use hover pucks to measure speed over a distance of six meters. Once speed has been calculated, students will determine velocity using the same data. Finally, students will be able to label all points of acceleration.
Scientifically Magnetic!
Students will review the steps of the scientific method and conduct an investigation that involves sorting magnetic and nonmagnetic objects.
Drumming Up Some Sound Energy!
Students will explore sound energy by creating their own drums using a variety of materials. Then, students will listen for the loud and soft sounds that each of the drums creates.
Types of Motion

Students will distinguish between and/or interpret the types of motion.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Safe Practices

Students will use interactive exercises to review common lab safety rules and safety symbols.
Lab Safety Equipment

Given investigation scenarios, students will select appropriate preventative safety equipment.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Data Organization

Using interactive exercises, students will review how to construct tables and graphs in order to organize data.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Data Analysis

Students will use interactive exercises to analyze data to identify patterns, predict trends, formulate reasonable explanations, and communicate valid conclusions.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Scientific Explanations

Using interactive exercises, students will review how to evaluate a scientific explanation.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Models

Using interactive exercises, students will review the three different types of models and the advantages and limitations of models.
Scientific Investigation and Reasoning - Contribution of Scientists

Using interactive exercises, students will review the contributions of scientist to various fields of scientific study.
Matter and Energy - Atomic Structure

Using interactive exercises, students will describe the structure of atoms and the locations of particles with in the atom.
