The best way of learning about anything is by doing - Richard Branson
Learning Math with CTE
The Math-in-CTE model provides opportunities for math and CTE teachers to team teach, showing students where math intersects in real world applications. The age-old question of "Why do I need to learn this?" is answered by teaching difficult math concepts in a practical and experiential way.

A.M.P.E.D
A.M.P.E.D. is an acronym for
Algebra in Manufacturing Processes, Entrepreneurship, & Design.
Also developed by Contextual Learning Concepts from Colorado, this course helps students with Algebra 1, which has one of the highest failure rates of any math class. Also team taught between the math and CTE teachers, and applicable to students of all ability levels, students learn about product development, manufacturing, and the running of a business.
