In our class, we have a club. This club is called a Career and Technical Student Organizations or CTSO. The name of the CTSO is SkillsUSA. It is an international organization of around 300,000 students like you, teachers, and businesses, all dedicated to developing a highly skilled American workforce.
The organization was actually founded in Nashville in 1965.
So what exactly is SkillsUSA and what is this club all about?
Here's how we will find out:
Go to http://www.skillsusa.org/
Click on About Us>Key Facts>SkillsUSA Fact Sheet.
Read the Overview and Mission portions. In your own words explain what SkillsUSA is and what its purpose is.
Write 3 - 5 complete sentences.
There are also contests and competitions for SkillsUSA members. These take place all across the state and would
involve missing a few days of school (SRA's) if you competed. I know that is bad news, but true.
Go to http://www.skillsusa.org/compete/contests.shtml
There are three contest categories in which you might compete if you take courses that I teach. What do you think
they are? You do not have to go beyond G alphabetically.
This club is also about community service. List five things you could do to be of service to your community,
school, or this classroom.
Next week, we will discuss club membership, meetings and activities. So think about it. Do you want to take a
field trip, visit businesses like advertising agencies, have meetings and bring in food? We'll talk next week.

1. Go to the links and read the information.
2. Turn in an online response with your name and block.

Shows students how the skills of the work force have changed since the time of the covered
wagon. See how today’s high tech industries demand well- trained workers with top-notch skills.
the assignment:
Pick an emerging technology that has the potential to affect the lives of many people. Write a report about the technology and then predict its possible impact on the lives of people.
presentation/procedure/sequence:
What new technology that has been introduced in the past five years has really changed your dayto-day life?
(possible answers: smaller cell phones with Internet access, instant messaging, text messaging,
cell phones with cameras, DVD players, Tivo DVRs, flat screen televisions, MP3 players, etc.)
What technology brought big changes during your parents’ lifetimes?
(possible answers: personal computers, mobile phones, digital cameras, the Internet)
What technology brought big changes in your grandparents’ lifetimes?
(possible answers: cars, telephones, television, airline transportation, etc.)
These changes affect not only our personal lives but also our work lives. What processes and
equipment have changed within our occupational area in the past decade?
(Seek some answers from students and share your own information on major changes in
technology within your trade area, over the past decade or two).
Computers are the backbone of almost every industry and they are at the cutting edge of almost
every new technological advancement in our world today. Talk with students about the role of
computers and how they have changed rapidly even over the past five or ten years.
Brainstorm about some common things computers are used for: to process school grades, at the
grocery store to run the cash registers and to update the pricing via bar codes, to run diagnostics on a car at an auto dealer, to run the lights and sound at a major concert event, to map DNA through the Human Genome Project, etc.
Have students guess at what they think will be the newest advancements in personal computing
over the next decade.
