Great activity- students designed a boat that would float the most pennies. Teams had a big time with this one!

Guest’s Name: Mr. Ronnie Todd, Whiteville High School Career and Technical Education Teacher

• We are excited about having you participate in our podcast episode, we are interested in having a conversation about the classes you teach and the careers pathway Construction Technologies.
• To help prepare for the interview, write down at least six interesting facts about yourself before we conduct the actual interview.
• We will use this information as part of your interview.

The questions that I would like to address in the episode are:

1. Did you take any Career and Technical Education courses in high school? If so, which ones?
2. What courses do you teach at WHS?
3. How do your students use technology? Measurement, web searches for projects?
4. How many different types of work experience have you been exposed to?
5. After graduation from high school, what postsecondary are students prepared for?
6. Are jobs available for students with construction technologies skills? Can they make a lot of money?
7. In your opinion, how could our schools better prepare students for the world of work?
8. Do you have anything to add? Do you have any questions about Columbus Counties TechPrep Consortium?
