Conference Highlights

CTEA Conference Strands

Strand 1: Hands-on Projects

The workshops in this strand will show participants how they can use hands-on activities in their classroom to engage and motivate their students through "doing" technology. Possible examples of traditional industrial arts workshops could include building boomerangs, exploring glider designs or building a hovercraft.

Strand 2: Teaching Strategies

The presentations/workshops in this strand will showcase best practices, specific instructional strategies, models and tools (such as course management systems) that have helped students demonstrate their learning and achievement in the classroom.

Strand 3: Pre-Engineering

The presentations/workshops in this strand will show participants how they might present science, technology, engineering and math (“STEM”) to students using fun, hands-on, minds-on projects to instill an excitement for studying engineering in college and eventually pursue a cool high-tech, high-paying career in engineering or engineering technology. Presentations in the Pre-Engineering strand will introduce other teachers to pre-engineering classes/programs/organizations and give helpful ideas and projects to technology teachers / industrial arts teachers who are already teaching in this area.
