STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擜 cohort of 94 new career and technical education (CTE) teachers have been honing their skills at 无码专区 as part of their training and licensure to be teachers in Mississippi.

As part of the Vocational Instructor Preparation program, Mississippi State鈥檚 Research and Curriculum Unit (RCU) has implemented the New Teacher Induction (NTI) training on behalf of the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE).

During NTI training, RCU professionals teach new CTE teachers from across the state research-based teaching strategies, so they are prepared when the new school year begins. The training is required for all new CTE teachers without a teaching degree who are in the process of obtaining a standard license. Many of them come from industry-related professions.

鈥淭he NTI program offers teachers research-based strategies that can be used with high school students,鈥 said Leanne Long, project manager at the RCU. 鈥淭eaching is hard work, and we hope to prepare, coach and support new educators, so they will remain in the profession.鈥

In the training, NTI participants attend sessions on topics such as lesson plan development, classroom management and assessment. Participants also visit industry partners in the Golden Triangle area, including some 无码专区 faculty, gaining insight into real-life applications they can take back to their classrooms.

鈥淚t鈥檚 important to model for new teachers how they can incorporate industry into their classrooms,鈥 said Lois Kappler, project manager at the RCU. 鈥淢aking industry connections in their local areas will enhance their classroom instruction and increase the placement of students in the workforce after graduation.鈥
