Using Pathway Student
Outcome Charts
High School Teachers Council
December 8, 2010
Objectives
• To understand how the Student Outcome
Charts, including the vision and mission, of
each pathway can be used to create a
coherent, engaging and relevant
educational experience for all students.
• To understand the key role the focus on
student outcome charts plays in the
building of meaningful pathways at each
high school.
Icebreaker
Individually:
Visualize- upon
graduating, what do
you want your
students to become?
When time is up, tape
your vision to the wall.

will enjoy your
engineering pathway
Robotics is so
cool…can’t wait
to facebook this.
WOW, Check out that

Hey there is math
involved in creating
robotics.. go figure!
Duh.. Frita, and
that is why in
English we are
learning about
technical writing.
Check it out, in
Physics we
talked about the
movement of
robots.

What makes a students experience
today different from the past?
Agenda
• Student Outcome Charts
as tools for creating
intentionally coherent and
relevant student
educational experiences
– What goes into the student
outcome charts?
– How were they created?
• BREAK
• Activity Using Student
Outcome Charts
Why do we need Student Outcome
Charts?
Past:
Student Experience is not coordinated for
student engagement or real-world
connections.
Why do we need Student Outcome
Charts?
Linked Learning:
Pathways-SLCs
Student Experience IS coordinated for
student engagement and real-world
connections.
Student Outcome Charts
Student Outcome charts are a tool that
provides a blueprint for a coherent,
engaging four year educational experience
above and beyond the academic
standards all students take.
Student Outcome Charts
Like the conductor of an orchestra, the student outcome
charts coordinate the work of many teachers to reach the
desired outcome.
Parts of Student Outcome Charts
• Industry Sector Affiliation
• Vision and Mission
• Attributes that uniquely identify students of
that pathway when they graduate
• 9th – 12th grade set of expected outcomes
for students
Example Student Outcome Chart
Vision: Every student an ethical, responsible citizen who
seeks to understand and improve the world through
engineering technology.
Mission: Incorporate engineering technology into every
aspect of the educational process by:
1) Integrating career and technical education and
engineering technology into core academic classes and
the learning environment.
2) Utilizing technology in project- and problem-based
instruction to enhance student learning and develop
teamwork, communication, and leadership.
3) Providing a structured sequence of work-based learning
opportunities.
Student Outcome Charts
• How were they created?
• Inputs:
– SLC teachers, Admin, Counselor, Content Area
Teachers, Elective Teachers from EVERY
pathway/SLC
– CTE standards
• Big Blue Book (also online)
– District support and PD
• Training February 2010
• SLC Grants, Connect Ed Grant
• Local Business Consultancy
– (Feedback about important standards)
Student Outcome Charts
Voices of Industry
Teacher capture
student needs,
interests.
Teachers synthesize
information from
many sources
Work collaboratively
for maximum
ownership
