We LOVE CAPSTONE SEASON!

[David Dimmett @DavidDimmett]

I sat down with Canise, Dymond, and Danika at Walnut High School to hear their take on success, passion, and the future of work. No scripts, just 15 minutes of unvarnished student voice.

Listen to Episode 1 of Learning Together at the link in the first comment.

👀 Take a look at one of our recent PLTW Showcases at @mdcacademy!

PLTW Showcases provide PLTW districts, schools, teachers, and—most importantly—STUDENTS with an opportunity to highlight the authentic, career-connected learning taking place every day.

We asked students to finish this statement: "I plan on being..."
🔍 "A forensic attorney."
👩‍⚕️ "An orthopedic surgeon."
🏥 "A nurse practitioner."
🔬 "...in a lab focused on curing diseases like diabetes."

🎉 Celebrating National Engineers Week 🎉

We reached out to PLTW Transformative Partner @Phillips66Co and their Commercial and Business Development Senior Director Alex Sideris, who has 20 years of experience with the company, to learn more about his path to a career in chemical engineering.

Among other insights, Alex shared about his experience with internships –
“It provided me with a view of what work and industry was actually like, and the guidance received from my bosses and counterparts back then shaped how I approached my work from then on.”

Career and Technical Education starts much earlier than we think!

CTE is more than a pathway that students choose in high school.

The spark of curiosity comes much earlier in students' learning journey through hands-on activities, problem-based learning, and career connected learning that bridges the gap for students between their passions, interests, strengths, and possible careers.
