TASC - Field Endorsement in Industrial Technology Education

The technology teacher education program and the optional Trade and Industrial Education endorsement program prepares students for entering a teaching career in Junior/Senior High School and Post-Secondary industrial technology education and/or trade and industrial programs. The combination of lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and laboratory activities provides the student with experiences necessary for the development of the theoretical and practical understanding of industry and technology. The program is comprehensive and includes work in the area of planning and design systems, manufacturing systems, construction systems, and power, energy and transportation systems. This teacher education program balances technical training with organization, management, and teaching methods courses that prepare the future teacher to utilize his/her technical training in a classroom setting.
