Time Title Description Session Organizer
8:15 -9:15 a.m. Using a Non Fiction Storybook As the Backdrop for Technical Learning Can we use stories to integrate literacy and technology? One teacher at Susquehanna County Career and Technology Center has done so. By reading a book about Alzheimer's, health care technology students are learning how to integrate technology, literacy concepts, and learning. This concept offers technical teachers and administrators many ways to use literacy as a way to motivate students to become engaged in learning their technical content. This presentation will show many concepts to help teachers and administrators see ways to lead students to mastery of real-world technical competencies. By using this method, students will be motivated to learn and apply their technical content. Dan Perna
8:15 - 10:30 a.m. Status Quo to Status Grow - Supercharging Your Institution for Growth -  Chocolate, Elephants & Wrinkle Remover In this entertaining, humorous, highly interactive, and fast-paced session, you will learn the secrets used by big business to market and grow your CTE school and individual programs.

Come and discover ways to recruit and retain students with word of mouth, pizzazz, and zing and by using the secrets of chocolate, elephants, and wrinkle remover. You will laugh and learn ways to communicate the value of your programs in ways that get support from students, parents, and stakeholders.

Come see why attendees at last year’s ACTE National Conference said “Best session of the conference.”
