• W142757100 abstract "Each agriculture teacher has things they can improve in their program, whether they teach in a one or multiple person department. Facilities tend to be an area that can always see improvement. As teachers begin their new positions, many lists begin to form, and then a list of lists is created, just to keep everything straight. For veteran teachers, I am sure the number of items on those lists may seem to dwindle, but the importance of those few items remaining and/or added probably increase. Nevertheless, agriculture teachers have plenty of things to do to ensure their students have the best opportunities available to learn, in preparation for their futures. The Beginning My agricultural education career began as my wife, Mendi, and I moved to the great Central Valley of California to teach at Ripon High School. After signing the contract with the superintendent, we were offered a deal that we couldn't pass up, as we agreed to pay low rent for residence at the school farmhouse which resided on the 20 acre high school farm, detached from high school by 5 miles. Students that had projects at the school farm or simply worked on farm did so before or after school, either driving themselves or getting rides with parents, guardians, or myself. Of course there was plenty to do back at the school within the classroom/ labs and around the horticulture facility and department in general. But I think some excellent opportunities arose at the school farm to illustrate some points and opportunities for student learning. I hope these points will be encouraging to you. I think the biggest thing that I felt starting my new job was that I put a tremendous amount of pressure on myself to get the rest of the facilities up to par with what had already been upgraded. I suppose the pressure arose from the fact that we lived at my work and the school farm was destined to be a centerpiece for the local agricultural community and department. The first month I tried to do things on my own, but the moment I began to involve other people in the process, things began to fall in place. Parents, farmers, supporters, and students alike became involved. Looking back, the result was a very improved facility with many people to give credit to. Something more important happened along the way. Several students became very interested in giving time and effort to move our farm forward to meet its' potential. The best way to describe what happened can be illustrated through a multiple step process identified as Action Research. As I, the teacher, became engaged in tackling project after project, I went through a process, whether I knew at the time what it was called, nonetheless, the process worked. The first couple of projects I worked on alone or with my wife, involved: * identifying a situation that needed improvement (too many to remember them all) * check literature to identify options (usually internet, college notes, & textbooks) develop program of action (step by step on lists with check boxes) * how each action will be evaluated (not usually very formal, but essential before moving on) * perform action (being conscious about safety, and efficiency) * review (look back and evaluate: did we accomplish what we set out to accomplish?) Involving Students After I had gone through these processes, it became very easy to involve students who showed interest. Several students, who had animal projects, stepped up to the plate big time. One particular student, James, had done very well in the class when it came to concrete, electrical, framing, plumbing, and of course safety. James knew that we needed to improve a dark and dreary one room restroom in the horse shed. The restroom measured out at 5' by 8'. James also knew that if that restroom wasn't fixed, that farmhouse restroom would continue to be the only means of using a restroom on the twenty acres. …" @default.
