Workforce 2020

This WebQuest was developed as a class assignment from the University of Albany, NY Masters program in Education Theory and Practice: Curriculum Design and Instructional Theory for course ETAP524 – Integrating Technology into Curriculum; also to add to my Curriculum Vitae since it will be published online by Zunal.  In this assignment we had to develop a lesson plan centered on production and problem-solving; this WebQuest is part II of that assignment. I have over 15 years of teaching and training (children, youth, and adults) experience combined, I am pursing NYS certification.

The Vocational Teacher is to teach a career development and leadership. The class consists of a diverse student population of females and males ages 16-24 years old. The academic skills levels of the students varies from 12th grade to 1st year college freshmen level; therefore, this course and lessons was developed using the NYS Commencement standards (pedagogy) and the adult learning (andragogy) theories of teaching and learning. I applied the New York State Learning Standards Career Development and Occupational Studies Commencement Level Standards 1, 2, 3a & b; Social Studies Standard #4; and ISTE standards 1 – 6 in developing this Career Quest. The overarching educational theories are behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism.
