In the Beginning
CASE lessons are developed from a panel of experts:
• Secondary teachers who are content experts• Post-secondary staff from teaching and research in
content area• Industry representatives involved in subject matter
area
Field testing is conducted the first full school year to ensure quality
36
![Page 37: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CASE is not Stagnant
Curriculum revision every three years• Update new science and technology• Update new content needs• Integrate new ideas for teaching strategies
provided by CASE teachers• Realign curriculum goals with educational reform• Update assessment instruments
37
![Page 38: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Pedagogical Philosophy
• How People Learn, by the National Research Council
• Understanding by Design, by the Wiggins & McTighe
CASE is grounded in research and philosophy prescribed by:
![Page 39: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
How People Learn
• Design effective learning environments• Students learn in a multitude of ways, clear,
discernable outcomes must be used to develop conceptual understandings
• Situate knowledge in context to help the learner organize information
• Sets-up the concept of “spiraling” lessons to manage misconceptions
39
![Page 40: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Understanding By Design
• Backwards design curriculum
• Clear and precise concepts are assessed– Not extra stuff to cause confusion
• Shifts learning outcomes from knowledge (and skill) to understanding– Understanding allows for transfer of concepts
40
![Page 41: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
Agriculture and Core Academic Enhancement of Rigor
• All CASE lesson concepts are aligned to national content standards for:– AFNR (NCAE)– Science (NSES)– Mathematics (NCTM)– English (NCTE)
• Purposeful instruction of Employability Skills
![Page 42: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Enhancement of Mathematics and Science
CASE utilizes best instructional design strategies for enhancing math and science within agriculture subject matter:
– Mathematics – NRCCTE Seven Elements of Mathematics Lesson Enhancement (Stone, et.al, 2006)
– Science – Inquiry based approaches as defined by Colburn (2004)
42
![Page 43: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Purposeful Teaching of Math
Bring the math out and purposely teach it in a generic way so students understand the math

![Page 44: Site Logistics Welcome Facilities Lodging Meals College Credit](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814969550346895db6be21/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Purposeful Teaching of Science
• Inquiry-based methodology used if at all possible
• Proper use of science equipment as professionals in agricultural research use
• Reinforcement of scientific method and appropriate communication of data
