Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 28 - EDUCATION › Part LXV - Bulletin 106-Agriculture Education Content Standards Curriculum Framework › Chapter 1 - General › Section LXV-101 - Introduction

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The Educational
				Framework for Louisiana's Agriscience/Agribusiness/FFA Program is an effort to
				restructure this program for the 21st century. This framework is based on the
				conviction that all students deserve and must have more productive and
				fulfilling lives through the application of agricultural, scientific,
				mathematical, language arts, FFA leadership activities, knowledge, ideas and
				processes. This conviction is a vision of great hope and optimism for the
				future of our graduates, one that can act as a powerful unifying
				force.
B. Setting goals and
				developing state standards to meet them are key strategies in the
				agriscience/agribusiness/FFA program. Support for educational frameworks in
				Louisiana originated in the 1980s when the National Governors Association
				sanctioned national education goals. Other events of key importance that laid
				the groundwork for these standards include:
1. A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for
				Educational Reform (1983)1 ;
2. Understanding Agriculture: New Directions
				for Education (1988)2 ;
3. Agricultural Education for the Year 2020
				(1996-98)3 ;
4. several projects that developed innovative
				agriscience curricula during the past decade;
5. ongoing legislation and restructuring
				projects, such as the Southern Region Education Board's High Schools that Work
				Project and the School to Career legislation, mandate that curricular change in
				vocational, science, mathematics and other educational areas must
				occur.
Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 28 - EDUCATION › Part LXV - Bulletin 106-Agriculture Education Content Standards Curriculum Framework › Chapter 1 - General › Section LXV-103 - Louisiana Content Standards Foundation Skills

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The Louisiana Content Standards Task Force
				has developed the following foundation skills, which should apply to all
				students in all disciplines.
1. Communication
				-a process by which information is exchanged and a concept of "meaning" is
				created and shared between individuals through a common system of symbols,
				signs, or behavior. Students should be able to communicate clearly, fluently,
				strategically, technologically, critically, and creatively in society and in a
				variety of workplaces. This process can best be accomplished through use of the
				following skills: reading, writing, speaking, listening, viewing, and visually
				representing.
2. Problem Solving
				-the identifying of an obstacle or challenge and the application of knowledge
				and thinking processes which include reasoning, decision making, and inquiry in
				order to reach a solution using multiple pathways, even when no routine path is
				apparent.
3. Resource Access and
				Utilization- the process of identifying, locating, selecting, and using
				resource tools to help in analyzing, synthesizing, and communicating
				information. The identification and employment of appropriate tools,
				techniques, and technologies are essential in all learning processes. These
				resource tools include pen, pencil, and paper; audio/video material; word
				processors; computers; interactive devices; telecommunication; and other
				emerging technologies.
4. Linking
				and Generating Knowledge: The effective use of cognitive processes to generate
				and link knowledge across the disciplines and in a variety of contexts. In
				order to engage in the principle of continued improvement, students must be
				able to transfer and elaborate on these processes.
Transfer
refers to the ability to apply a strategy or content knowledge effectively in a
				setting or context other than that in which it was originally learned.
Elaboration
refers to monitoring, adjusting, and expanding
				strategies into other contexts.
5.
				Citizenship- the application of the understanding of the ideals, rights, and
				responsibilities of active participation in a democratic republic that includes
				working respectfully and productively together for the benefit of the
				individual and the community; being accountable for one's choices and actions
				and understanding their impact on oneself and others; knowing one's civil,
				constitutional, and statutory rights; and mentoring others to be productive
				citizens and lifelong learners.
Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 28 - EDUCATION › Part LXV - Bulletin 106-Agriculture Education Content Standards Curriculum Framework › Chapter 1 - General › Section LXV-107 - Mission Statement for Agriscience /Agribusiness/FFA

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The Mission of the
				Agriscience/Agribusiness/FFA Program Education is to prepare and support
				individuals for careers; build awareness of and develop leadership for the
				food, fiber and natural resource systems; and to sustain the viability of earth
				and people through education in agriculture. We value and desire to achieve
				this mission by:
1. providing instruction in
				and about agriscience, food and natural resource systems;
2. serving all populations;
3. developing the whole person;
4. responding to the needs of the economic
				and educational marketplace;
5.
				advocating free enterprise and entrepreneurship education;
6. functioning as a part of the total
				educational system;
7. connecting
				classroom and laboratory instruction with real-world life and career
				experiences; and
8. utilizing a
				proven educational process which includes:
a.
				formal instruction in classrooms and laboratories;
b. site-based, experiential learning in
				supervised agricultural experience programs; and
c. leadership and personal development thru
				the FFA.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The mission stated above is accomplished
				by using a combination of experiential and inquiry-based learning in the
				classroom, laboratory, and community. All students in
				agriscience/agribusiness/FFA benefit from the emphasis on lifelong skills such
				as leadership and personal development, critical thinking, communications,
				teamwork, career decision making, and citizenship. The Louisiana Content
				Standards Foundation Skills on page 3 and the Information Literacy Model on
				page 4 have been adopted by the Louisiana agriscience/agribusiness/FFA
				profession and have been incorporated into the teaching philosophy and
				processes used in Louisiana.

Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 28 - EDUCATION › Part LXV - Bulletin 106-Agriculture Education Content Standards Curriculum Framework › Chapter 3 - Components/Structure The Teaching and Learning of Agriscience/Agribusiness/FFA › Section LXV-303 - Unifying Concepts and Processes

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. Students are taught decision-making skills
				and provided opportunities to take responsibility for significant events and
				projects in the AgEd/FFA program. These opportunities require hands-on, applied
				activities that address the student's individual development in several areas:
				career development, leadership skills, workplace readiness, safety awareness,
				business management and marketing, and group and organizational skills. These
				skills are based on concepts taught in academic subjects and students are
				taught to apply these concepts to life in the real world. Since agriculture is
				the application of science, providing science credit for AgEd/FFA serves the
				student's educational needs while also incorporating current trends in science
				education. AgEd/FFA also incorporates the applications approach for
				mathematics, language arts and communications, and other academic
				areas.
B. In addition to the
				integration with academic subjects, there is a broad spectrum of careers in
				agriculturally related fields. AgEd/FFA serves as a career path for those
				students who choose to enter agricultural occupations. AgEd/FFA courses, in
				tandem with appropriate academic and elective courses, prepare students to
				enter college, pursue post-secondary education, or enter the workforce upon
				graduation.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. AgEd/FFA is
				not a classroom only subject. It is based on a constantly expanding knowledge
				base, evolving technology and other scientific advances, and emerging ethical
				issues both in the instructional environment and in agriculture. The AgEd/FFA
				program must meet student and community needs, and state leadership must
				provide for a wide range of local adaptation. It must be taught as an integral
				part of high school curricula, rather than as an isolated or stand-alone
				program.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A.
				AgEd/FFA is unique among educational programs in that its laboratory and
				site-based experiences are highly interrelated. For example, after classroom
				instruction on metal or wood construction techniques, materials, etc., students
				may perform metal or wood construction in a laboratory located at the school or
				they may perform the same task in a site-based experience. After classroom
				instruction on parliamentary law motions and procedures, students actually
				utilize these motions and procedures to conduct mock meetings using the
				classroom as a laboratory; then, students use parliamentary law to conduct the
				business of the school's FFA chapter. In both cases, depth of knowledge and
				skills is developed through a combination of classroom, laboratory, site-based
				experiences.
B. The program must
				allow the teacher to facilitate learning while continuing to integrate science,
				mathematics, and communication skills into the total program. Instruction
				should be coordinated with all high school courses and taught as an integral
				part of the total instructional experience for the student, rather than as an
				isolated program.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. AgEd/FFA programs demand modern equipment,
				facilities, materials, and other technology that simulate the current
				environment in the workplace. The program must emphasize knowledge construction
				to solve problems via the problem-solving method traditionally used in
				AgEd/FFA, a method that has become popular in many other fields during the past
				few years. The problems used in this method must be realistic in nature and
				must require learners to determine the method of solving the problem as well as
				the actual application of the final solution. The instructional process must
				incorporate hands-on teaching, an approach that requires equipment, technology
				and materials similar to those used in the real-work world. Consumable supplies
				must be provided on a reliable, consistent basis.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The FFA is
				recognized as the finest student organization in the world. It is a
				co-curricular student organization that serves as an essential teaching tool in
				the AgEd/FFA program. FFA activities provide motivational, application-oriented
				opportunities for students to develop skills and demonstrate learning. Students
				are given the responsibility for running an FFA chapter. They learn critical
				thinking skills, leadership, teamwork, communications, competition, ethics, and
				other critical-life skills through this process. FFA activities connect
				classroom learning with career-related, real-world experiences. The FFA makes a
				positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for
				premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through
				AgEd/FFA.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. A very unique component of AgEd/FFA is the
				Supervised Agricultural Experience Program (SAEP). This component is in
				addition to the classroom, laboratory and site-based experiences described
				above. Each student enrolled in AgEd/FFA is required to plan and conduct a
				SAEP. SAEP is a coordinated set of supervised individual experiences in an
				agricultural career area. Examples of SAEPs include employment in a farm,
				ranch, or agribusiness setting; individual production of livestock or crops;
				volunteer work with community organizations using agricultural skills; or
				developing entrepreneurial opportunities.
B. The SAEP allows the student to apply the
				knowledge and individualized skills learned in school-sponsored classroom,
				laboratory and site-based activities in their own situation. These experiences
				allow students to explore career areas, to develop career skills further, to
				develop self-confidence and a sense of responsibility and pride, to hone their
				personal decision-making skills, and to receive recognition for their
				achievements.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A.
				Many critics of American education point to the Japanese, German and other
				systems of education as being superior primarily because of the depth of
				learning that is common to those systems. AgEd/FFA has traditionally emphasized
				depth of knowledge and skills. For example, instead of just learning
				measurement, students use measurement skills in conjunction with other skills
				to construct realistic agricultural projects or facilities. Instead of just
				studying chemicals and their effects on plants, students select appropriate
				chemicals for specific problems or situations, calibrate equipment, and apply
				the chemical according to manufacturers' specifications. Instead of just
				learning business principles, students are involved in entrepreneurial SAEPs,
				develop a business plan, maintain records, and evaluate business success. These
				examples demonstrate the depth that exists in the AgEd/FFA program.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A.
				Assessment is the "process of collecting, synthesizing and interpreting
				information to aid in decision making" (Airasian, 1991)4
				. It is an important tool used to make decisions about
				educational quality and improvement. It is a key tool used by Louisiana
				Department of Education staff, members of the State Board of Elementary and
				Secondary Education, and other stakeholders to make decisions about education
				policy and to ensure accountability. Assessment must guide the enhancement and
				improvement of AgEd/FFA and FFA.

A.
				One major error made by some professionals and stakeholders in the field of
				education is that they often fail to base assessment on valid, measurable
				instructional objectives. If everyone has not agreed what a program is supposed
				to produce from an instructional quantity and quality standpoint, then any
				assessment is futile. In the case of the AgEd/FFA strands described in this
				publication, assessment design becomes even more critical because each local
				program of AgEd/FFA must be based on student and local community needs rather
				than a state-wide mandated curriculum. As such, assessment of AgEd/FFA programs
				should be conducted based on local objectives.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. One
				initiative in education reform is the promotion of the use of alternative
				assessment in all areas of education. "Alternative assessment includes any type
				of assessment in which students create a response to a question rather than
				choose a response from a given list (e.g., multiple-choice, true-false, or
				matching). Alternative assessment can include short answer questions, essays,
				performances, oral presentations, demonstration, exhibitions, and portfolios."

A. The alternative assessment examples
				identified above match the instructional needs of AgEd/FFA programs and will
				continue to be used. However, a comprehensive, valid assessment of AgEd/FFA
				must include an assessment of all components of the program:
				classroom/laboratory/site-based instruction, supervised agriscience experience
				program, and FFA activities. This program cannot and should not be evaluated
				solely on written examinations or standardized test scores. However, AgEd/FFA
				students have consistently scored higher on all five portions of the Louisiana
				Assessment of Education Process (LEAP) tests than the general student
				population.6  Alternative methods such as
				portfolios, exhibitions, and skill performances, and career development events
				must be used. The Annual Report/Plan Louisiana Agriscience/Agribusiness/FFA is
				one tool that should be used in assessing AgEd/FFA programs.

Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 28 - EDUCATION › Part LXV - Bulletin 106-Agriculture Education Content Standards Curriculum Framework › Chapter 5 - Assessment › Section LXV-509 - Need and Context for Restructuring AgEd/FFA

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The world of agriculture and AgEd/FFA
				continues to grow more complex. We develop, disseminate and interpret more
				information in less time than ever before. Our curriculum development, teacher
				education, state supervision/coordination of AgEd/FFA activities, and local
				delivery systems must stretch to keep the pace. AgEd/FFA educators must keep
				pace as scientists add more information to the knowledge base, budgets grow
				tighter, and the use of technology increases the speed of business.
B. These rapid changes require new ways of
				thinking, working and interacting. Just as newer, more powerful software
				applications can overwhelm today's computer systems, the ever-accelerating rate
				of change can overwhelm our system of AgEd/FFA. From curriculum development and
				dissemination to teacher preparation and state supervision/coordination of
				AgEd/FFA activities, our people are overloaded. It is time to take a fresh look
				at these systems to meet current and future needs more effectively.
C. Tremendous change is occurring in our
				nation's schools and particularly in Louisiana. Alternative scheduling is one
				initiative that is dramatically affecting AgEd/FFA. AgEd/FFA programs need the
				flexibility to function within 4x4 blocks and other forms of alternative
				scheduling. The use of this Framework in developing local curricula provides
				this flexibility.
D. The Frameworks
				project was launched in an effort to address these fundamental issues. This
				project is a visioning and planning initiative to develop a framework for 21st
				century education/FFA programs. This project, in collaboration with AgEd/FFA
				across the nation, is the first step in a multi-year effort to reinvent
				AgEd/FFA in the United States.

A. The purpose and
				goals of this project are to develop:
1. a
				master plan for developing the agricultural literacy and advanced career skills
				of Louisiana students as they progress through K-12 AgEd/FFA;
2. a master plan for AgEd/FFA based on
				Louisiana's needs;
3. a visionary
				document that will enable teachers, students, parents, administrators, and
				other stakeholders to envision the nature, purpose and role of AgEd/FFA in
				Louisiana schools;
4. a master plan
				that:
a. provides substantial depth of
				content and skills;
b. provides
				increased collaboration between teachers and students in instructional
				design;
c. utilizes alternative
				assessment methodology (other than primarily written objective
				tests);
d. describes the scope for
				AgEd/FFA;
e. provides flexibility
				to teachers in selecting course content and activities based on local
				needs;
f. prepares students for the
				21st century;
g. truly empowers
				teachers as leaders in the profession;
h. reemphasizes science, mathematics, and
				communications content of AgEd/FFA curricula;
i. emphasizes foundation skills developed by
				the Louisiana Content Foundation Skills Standards Task Force and by the
				Louisiana AgEd/FFA Framework Project Task Force:
i. communication;
ii. problem solving;
iii. resource access and
				utilization;
iv. linking and
				generating knowledge;
v.
				citizenship;
vi.
				leadership;
vii. career
				development;
viii.
				agricultural/occupational experience.
5. a master plan that recognizes that each
				AgEd/FFA program must be based on the needs of the students and local
				community. As such, not all AgEd/FFA programs will teach all benchmarks and
				identified benchmark components. Each AgEd/FFA educator must identify those
				benchmarks and benchmark components that are appropriate for their students and
				community.
