CTEIG TA Workshop Work-Based Learning Tools PRESENTERS Angela Higdon – Grant Coordinator, Napa County Office of Education Suzanne Murphy - Grant Coordinator, Napa County Office of Education Jim Souza – ROP Coordinator, Santa Barbara County Education Office

The Need q Tools to help everyone within the region to see Work-Based Learning as an instructional strategy. q To establish common definition and student learning outcomes while allowing for some personalization across districts. q Tools to help ensure the Work-Based Learning becomes ”standard practice” after the funding is gone.

History/Background q Decided to develop a regional on-line Work-Based Learning manual with definitions, student learning outcomes and downloadable and customizable tools. q Began as something we’d do within our own CCPT region but after discovering the need, decided to partner with other consortia groups throughout Northern California. q Committee of 27 representing several County Offices of Education, School Districts, Community Colleges & Industry Intermediaries in Northern California. q CTEIG Technical Assistance providers came together to review WBL materials in order to standardize the work we were doing with our grantees across the state. q Pulled together resources from a variety of providers to offer a comprehensive tool in one easy to access site.

The Result? A comprehensive easy -to-use on-line tool with downloadable resources which can be customized to meet local needs! www. wblcalifornia. org

Manual Exploration Activity Scenario Job Shadow You are working with a Medical Science Patient Care Pathway and are incorporating a unit on Radiology in October. You are looking at different ways to diagnose disease or disorder through X-ray and MRI. Kaiser has a representative that sits on your advisory board and he/she have been very open to partnering to enhance your current program. You’d like to set up a Job Shadow where students will have the opportunity to shadow Radiology Technician. Ideally, this would be a full-day Job Shadow where a small group of students would work with 1 -2 employees in the Radiology department. Group 1: Walk through the process and tools you would use to set up this activity as the Organizer/Educator. Group 2: What resources/activities and forms should be provided or assigned to students to prepare? Follow-Up? Group 3: What resources could be provided to the host/industry partner?

Legal Concerns q Please be aware that this WBL Manual site is designed to be used as a tool but may not cover all legal requirements for your district. (i. e. fingerprinting, liability insurance, etc. ) q Before engaging in any Work. Based Learning activity, please check with your district to ensure that all legal concerns are addressed according to your local area’s needs.
