MikeRoweWorks
After several years of doing the show, “Dirty Jobs”, Mike Rowe became concerned about our society’s definition of what it means to have a “good job”.  Not all “good jobs” require a four-year degree.  He developed his new website to promote skilled trades and to remind everyone that “Work is not the Enemy”.  He has videos that could be shown to students interested in technology programs.

Geometry In Construction
Two teachers at Loveland High School in Loveland, Colorado, developed a fully integrated program that presents Geometry in the context of a Construction program. They started with one cohort of 40 freshman and sophomore students who took the course in two block classes which are offered back‐to‐back, so they are seamless. All students in the program gained a deep knowledge of geometry concepts by immediately applying these concepts in a real‐world application.

Students in this program are scoring among the highest in the school district in terms of measurement and geometry standards. A growing number of high schools across the country are offering variations of the Geometry in Construction curriculum.
