Petro-chemical processing includes the knowledge and application of the principles of control and distribution related to petro-chemical processes. (b) Introduction. Rapid advances in technology have created new career opportunities and demands in trades and industries. Trade and industrial education provides the knowledge, skills, and technologies required for employment in industrial and manufacturing systems. Students need to develop knowledge of the concepts and skills related to this system in order to apply them to personal/career development. Trade and industrial education depends on and supports integration of academic and career and technology knowledge and skills. To prepare for success, students must have opportunities to reinforce, apply, and transfer their knowledge and skills to a variety of settings and problems. Knowledge about career opportunities, requirements, and expectations and the development of workplace skills prepare students for success. (c) Knowledge and skills. (1) The student knows the employability characteristics of a successful worker in the modern workplace. The student is expected to: (A) identify employment opportunities, including entrepreneurship, and preparation requirements for a petro-chemical laboratory technician; (B) demonstrate the principles of group participation and leadership related to citizenship and career preparation; (C) identify employers' expectations and appropriate work habits; (D) apply the competencies related to resources, information, systems, and technology in appropriate settings and situations; and (E) demonstrate knowledge of the concepts and skills related to health and safety in the workplace, as specified by appropriate government regulations. (2) The student relates core academic skills to the requirements of petro-chemical processing. The student is expected to: (A) demonstrate effective oral and written communication skills with individuals from varied cultures, including fellow workers, management, and customers; (I) apply the essential knowledge and skills in petro-chemical processing to work-based learning experiences including, but not limited to, cooperative education, job shadowing, mentoring, and apprenticeship training. //  Source: The provisions of this §125.73 adopted to be effective September 1, 1998, 22 TexReg 5160. // ||  ·        Project Rubric  ·       Use of application software,, media software  ·       Build resume  ·       How to use a digital camer  ·       Create resume <span style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt;

Students use the wiki checklist to help them guide their learning, stay on track, and self-assess their progress. Assessment can take place daily, based on daily observations and student products. Individual and group conferences are used to help monitor progress and answer any questions. Ask students to use the project rubric to help them self- and peer-assess work prior to completion. Use this same project rubric to assess and grade final presentations and completed projects. Eports ||   ||
