Abstract | The fourth recommendation in ACTE's high school reform position statement is to dramatically improve how and where academic content is taught. Even as advanced academic course-taking and high school graduation requirements have increased, student achievement on national benchmarks has remained flat, and college remediation rates continue to capture national attention. This leads to the conclusion that the achievement problem is not just one of low-level course-taking, it is also related to unfocused curriculum and instructional methods that are not reaching all students. Integration of academic competencies into career and technical education (CTE) curricula and of real-world content and applied methods and examples into traditional academic classes can raise student achievement levels and increase understanding of rigorous concepts. This article is the fourth in a yearlong series that will more closely examine the recommendations made in ACTE's high school reform position statement and highlight best practices for implementing each of the recommendations.
