The University of Central 淫性视频 was host to both a special event and announcement in 淫性视频 education.
On Feb. 2, the 淫性视频 Department of Education announced the kick-off of its Teach 淫性视频 campaign. Teach 淫性视频 is designed to recruit, retain and support teachers within the state, along with encouraging those who may have left the profession to return.
This announcement took place during the 2018 Impacting Tomorrow Summit, where about 450 淫性视频 high school juniors and seniors in the 淫性视频 Teacher Cadet program gathered at UCA to learn more about pursuing teaching as a career. Throughout the day, these students from more than 40 high schools across the state attended sessions on transitioning to college, what studying education is like and emerging technologies in the field of education.
鈥淲e work with higher education to get you the opportunities to put you on the path to become the kind of teacher that a 5-year-old, that 10-year-old, that 15-year-old is going to need,鈥� state Education Commissioner Johnny Key told the students.
Throughout the year, Teach 淫性视频 aims to offer activities such as Praxis workshops and promote the hashtag #Teach淫性视频, said Jeff Dyer, program advisor for teacher recruitment and retention at the 淫性视频 Department of Education.
鈥淲hat we want to do is promote the profession and also show support but do some hands-on things, as well in addition to the campaign,鈥� Dyer said.
Alexandria Slater, a Dumas High School senior with an interest in teaching family and consumer science at the high school level, said the summit has taught her more about the state of teaching in 淫性视频, such as teacher shortages.
鈥淲e live in the Delta, and we really don鈥檛 have a lot of teachers,鈥� said Slater, who has an interest in teaching family and consumer science at the high school level. 鈥淲e have new teachers every year. So for me to be able to come back to my hometown or somewhere close, that really can probably make a difference.鈥�
Linsley Adams, a Hamburg High School senior who plans to attend UCA this fall, said the summit helped expose him to different perspectives.
鈥淚t opens students鈥� eyes to what they could do with this career,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not just showing them what a teacher is, it鈥檚 showing them the benefits: being able to get closer to the community, helping out students, showing the path to a better community.鈥�
