376 Why CTE Matters More Than Ever
Description
In this recap episode of Disrupt Education, Peter Hostrawser and Alli Dahl revisit their insightful conversation with Mark Covelle, a passionate advocate for Career and Technical Education (CTE). Mark’s journey from traditional education to championing CTE underscores the power of disrupting outdated mindsets.
Peter and Alli highlight Mark’s revelation about the unintended consequences of the “college for all” narrative, which often marginalizes CTE as a secondary option. Mark’s impactful statement, “By saying college for all, we inadvertently said CTE for none,” reflects the critical need to elevate CTE as a vital pathway for all learners.
The recap emphasizes how CTE not only dismantles stigmas but equips students with technical skills and adaptability for the modern workforce. Peter and Alli dive deeper into Mark’s challenge for educators: to rethink success and prioritize curiosity, adaptability, and real-world problem-solving over traditional academic silos.
