Pennsylvania Competency-Based Teacher Education. Competencies: Industrial Arts Education.
Koble, Ronald L.
A competency-based educational project was done to develop an inventory of the competencies that beginning teachers of industrial arts education (K-12) in Pennsylvania must demonstrate to meet standards for satisfactory performance. Three regional workshops were held where the participants, selected by a steering committee using specific criteria, generated competency statements in four areas (industrial materials, power technology, visual communications, and industrial arts--professional) based on Pennsylvania's Generic 22 (a compilation of 22 statements delineating the general competencies needed by all teachers, regardless of grade level or subject area). Following these workshops, the steering committee synthesized and edited these competencies into a single set of statements. One hundred and twenty-five industrial arts teacher educators, supervisors, classroom teachers, and lay people attending an annual conference provided verbal and written feedback about the statements to the steering committee before the final editing was done. This booklet concludes with a complete list of the competency statements in the four areas and an appendix which includes Generic 22; an overview of project events, procedures, and dates; a list of the workshop participants and staff; and the criteria used for identifying competencies during the workshops.
