27 Let's also make sure that a high school diploma puts our kids on a path to a good job. Right now, countries like Germany focus on graduating their high school students with the equivalent of a technical degree from one of our community colleges, so that they're ready for a job. At schools like P-TECH in Brooklyn, a collaboration between New York Public Schools, the City University of New York, and IBM, students will graduate with a high school diploma and an associate degree in computers or engineering. President Barack Obama State of the Union address February 13, IBM Corporation

28 Why P-TECH matters U.S. demand for IT workers far outpacing supply, with steady decline in American students receiving degrees in STEM-related subjects Pathways to Prosperity (Harvard): U.S. must broaden the range of high-quality pathways offered to young adults, with far more emphasis on career counseling, career education, apprenticeship programs and community colleges as viable routes to well-paying jobs IBM Corporation

29 P-TECH NYC Opened: September 8, 2011 Site: Co-located at Paul Robeson High School Campus in Brooklyn, NY- with the Academy of Health Careers and Paul Robeson High School Students: th grade students / 127 9th grade students 76% boys and 24% girls African American and Hispanic males make up more than 60% of the population More than 80% of students are on free or reduced lunch and 16% of students Average attendance to date is 94% Leadership and Staff: Founding Principal, 2 assistant principals, 17 teachers, 4 central office staff, 2 full-time liaisons from City Tech and IBM IBM Corporation

30 The power of partnership Rashid Ferrod Davis, Founding Principal: Leading overall development of the school NYC DOE: Ensuring successful start up and ongoing implementation - Providing resources afforded to NYC public schools and new schools, as well as guidance through research and development of model design CUNY: Ensuring P-TECH is a successful model within its network of Early Colleges Initiatives - Developing P-TECH as 13 th early college high school, building on past success City Tech: Serving as the lead college partner - Students graduate with an Associate in Applied Sciences from City Tech in the 9-14 timeframe, earning a high school diploma and a college degree. IBM: Ensuring that students graduate career ready - Providing skills mapping, mentoring, workplace learning opportunities and IT careers IBM Corporation

31 A Rigorous and Focused Curriculum Benchmarks: unique goals for student progress Alignment: all students are exposed to a common sequence of technology courses in preparation for degree options Time: extended day/extended year model Foundation: four curricular strands that run through the six-year program IBM Corporation

32 Featured components Focus on Early College: A six-year scope and sequence of high school and college coursework to ensure students earn an Associate in Applied Science Focus on Careers: Students participate in an ongoing, sequenced Workplace Learning curriculum informed by current and future industry standards Focus on Personal Pathways: Each student moves through a personalized academic pathway, aligned to college and career requirements Focus on Extended Learning Time: The 9-14 school model features an extended school year, with students attending school in the summer IBM Corporation

34 IBM job opportunities for graduates with an AAS degree A P-TECH student gets advice from an IBM engineer, on a school trip to a facility in Fishkill, NY IBM Corporation

35 Core Principles Students should be expected to apply knowledge and skills in meaningful tasks within authentic contexts and given multiple opportunities to succeed Understanding big ideas in content (and context) is central to the work of students Students can only find and make meaning when they are asked to inquire, think at high levels, and solve problems Teachers regularly use thought-provoking, engaging and interactive instructional strategies Students need opportunities to revise their assignments using clear examples of successful work, known criteria and timely feedback IBM Corporation

36 P-TECH WorkPlace Learning: Core Standards/Skills Office Applications Communication Accountability Motivation Research and Analysis Work Readiness Problem-Solving IBM Corporation

37 Mentoring leads to better student outcomes According to a research brief published by Child Trends, Mentoring: A Promising Strategy for Youth Development" found: Educational achievement: Mentored youth have better attendance; a better chance of going on to higher education; and better attitudes toward school. Health and safety: Mentoring appears to help prevent substance abuse and reduce some negative youth behaviors. Social and emotional development: Taking part in mentoring promotes positive social attitudes and relationships. Mentored youth tend to trust their parents more and communicate better with them IBM Corporation

38 P-TECH NYC results 98% were promoted from grade 9 to 10 After only two semesters, 72% of students passed both English and math Regents with a score of 65 or better, meeting NYC high school graduation requirements After only three semesters, 80% of the legacy cohort is meeting or exceeding the state standard of scoring proficient on two core NYS Regents exams in English and math After only two semesters 48% of students met the CUNY college readiness (CR) indicators Within three semesters, 48 students completed at least one college course at City Tech Currently, 74 students (62 sophomores and 12 freshmen) are enrolled in at least one of eight college courses IBM Corporation

39 A model designed for replication P-TECH team will share curriculum, planning processes and technologies for replication and expansion across similar schools and models (banking, healthcare, etc.) Center for Children & Technology: Documenting planning process through first year of school IBM Corporation

44 IBM s 430,000 employees spent 3.2 million hours volunteering last year [2011], honing skills while building goodwill. From P-TECH, a public high school in Brooklyn where students can earn an associate degree in computer science, to a global grid that pools unused computer processing power for the benefit of researchers, the company makes sure its philanthropic efforts align with its business objectives. That s why IBM takes the top spot in The Civic 50, a new scorecard on America s community-minded companies produced by Bloomberg LP in partnership with the National Conference on Citizenship and Points of Light, two nonprofits promoting volunteerism. Along with measuring community impact, we want to see how well companies leverage the time and talent of their employees, says Points of Light executive Jackie Norris.
