IPS Webpage
Individual Plans of
Study
What is an IPS?
• Product - Multi-year educational plan based on
career interests
• Process – Providing students access to career
development
It’s NOT just a graduation plan
What are the obstacles in moving students toward
quadrant D, high rigor and high application?
1. Living in the Past – Always done that way
2. Scheduling
3. Licensure
4. Carnegie Units
5. Finances
6. Different levels of High Rigor per student
7. Lack of support to provide PD to teachers for the
changes
8. Limited opportunities for work-based learning in
community
What do we need to start doing to
move students into Quadrant D?
1. Cause students to think critically
2. Integration/Team Teaching
3. Differentiated Teaching Strategies
4. Increased Relevance
What do we need to stop doing to
move students into Quadrant D?
1. Less Standards – Higher/Fewer/Clearer
(Common Career Technical Core)
2. No Competency Profiles
Which one of the following seven areas in CTE do you feel
you need the most support and guidance from KSDE
during 2014-2015?

• Career Awareness and
Guidance

Pathway Assessment Rubric
Developed in response
to requests from schools
for guidance with:
1. Creating meaningful
improvement plans
2. Engaging advisory
committee members
Pathway Assessment Rubric
• Voluntary
• Will not be shared with
KSDE
• BEST PRACTICE –
Teacher(s) of a Pathway
complete the assessment
along with Advisory
Committee
• Contains four components
of a quality Pathway
(all four are part of a draft of
the CTE Accreditation Model)
• Partnerships
• Physical Environment
• Instructional Practices
• Professional Development
Component
Indicator
IV. Instructional Strategies
A. Instruction is balanced between classroom & laboratory
instruction, experiential learning, and leadership & personal
development
 Missing or non-existent.
 Needs Improvement—One component of the classroom and
laboratory instruction, experiential learning, and leadership and
personal development dominate the curriculum, while others are
minimally addressed or ignored.
 Improving—While one component of the curriculum is clearly
Stages
dominating the instruction, there is a plan for bringing the deficient
area(s) into balance with input from the advisory committee and
state staff.
 Promising-Evidence exists that an attempt is made to balance the
curriculum across all components utilizing input from the local
advisory committee.
 Exemplary—A well-planned balance exists among all curriculum
components. The balance is documented and is a result of
collaboration with all stakeholders and state requirements.
“Score” a Pathway
• Think of one Pathway
• Assess the Pathway in only ONE component
• Under each indicator, check boxes next to the
stage that best fits the current status of the
Pathway
Reflection Questions
Which indicators did you score at the
struggling or missing (non-existent) stage?
(These are considered critical areas your pathway
improvement plan should address.)
3 yr. Pathway Improvement Plan Template
• Use the results from the Pathway assessment
rubric to develop SMART (specific, measurable,
attainable, realistic, timely) goals for each
component
• Very similar to the new template of the Pathway
Improvement Plan in the Pathway application
• If you feel the Pathway assessment rubric would
be a valuable tool, please use it during your fall
Advisory Committee Meeting
• More time and training will take place during the
Fall CTE Drive-In Workshops
