| مستخلص: | Technical literacy instruction and authentic learning opportunities need to be implemented through cross-curricular collaboration into secondary ELA curriculums to bridge the disconnect between K-12 education and the demands of the 21st-century workforce. The Common Core State Standards as well as newly adopted legislation in Maryland, Blueprint for Maryland's Future, call for secondary schools to prepare all students to be able to succeed in college and/or careers. This research sets out to capitalize on current Career and Technical Education (CTE) texts and authentic literacy tasks to enhance the 11th grade ELA curriculum in Cecil County Public Schools to address the demands of new legislation and align literacy tasks and instruction to the 21st-century workforce. Cecil County Public Schools CTE and secondary ELA teachers were brought together and formed a Professional Learning Community (PLC) focused on developing and implementing a pilot technical literacy unit into the 11th grade ELA curriculum and classrooms. Through this PLC, teachers received professional development, time to discuss common challenges in literacy instruction, and provide input into the development of a technical literacy unit. Growing CTE and ELA teacher capacity was key to the development and implementation of the technical literacy unit which included texts and authentic reading, vocabulary, writing, speaking, and listening tasks from authentic CTE content. The outcome of this action research was evaluated through teacher surveys reflecting a growth in teacher capacity to plan and teach technical literacy. The CCPS ELA curriculum was also evaluated using the EQuIP Rubric. The success of this research suggests that secondary schools would benefit from including opportunities for cross-curricular collaboration of staff to better infuse authentic, 21st-century skills into core curriculums. |
