PROJECT LEAD THE WAY—Wisconsin Professional Development Conference 2014 Country Springs Hotel and Convention Center / Nov. 17–18, 2014 pltwwi.org Welcome MSOE and Project Lead The Way: A Thriving Partnership Much like PLTW, MSOE utilizes hands-on, project-based engineering and biomedical sciences courses. That is why many PLTW students who attend MSOE excel. We invite you to learn more about our degree offerings, outstanding placement rates and high starting salaries. Learn how your students can thrive at MSOE while they pursue a successful and in-demand career. Visit msoe.edu and join Hub, a oneof-a-kind communications platform where you can create a PLTW group for your high school. Join the conversation today! PLTW students are eligible for up to $3,000 in annual scholarships The MSOE Advantage: The 2,700 students at MSOE enjoy academic challenge and reward, as well as the excitement of being located in a popular, vibrant Milwaukee neighborhood. Dear Teachers, Administrators, Supporters and Friends, Your Wisconsin Project Lead The Way team welcomes you to the 2014 Wisconsin Professional Development Conference! Whether you are here for the first time or returning after many years as part of the PLTW network, we are excited to have you with us. This year’s agenda is more expansive than ever before, including breakout sessions, networking opportunities, keynote speakers and (new this year) preconference training sessions. While this conference is a great professional development and networking opportunity, we also want to take this opportunity to celebrate your successes over this past year. Your passion, drive and commitment are amazing. Our team is consistently impressed by the ongoing successes of PLTW students in the classroom, student innovation in the inaugural 2014 Design Competition, the dedication and professionalism of PLTW teachers, and the commitment of all our friends and partners. Because of all of you, the Wisconsin PLTW network continues to remain at the forefront of adoption, innovation and improvement of PLTW programs in the country. On a per capita basis, Wisconsin maintains a leadership position in terms of the number of new and active PLTW programs. In addition, Wisconsin continues to lead the national network in many ways: pilot of the 2014 Engineering Design Competition, release of the 2015 PLTW Design Guide, strong adoption of the K-5 Launch curriculum, and continued growth of engineering and biomedical science with growth in the computer science. These are all things to be proud of. However, our past successes are joined by important new challenges. Wisconsin continues to face a drastic shortage of STEM graduates and skilled teachers to train those students. We are working with our high schools, middle schools and elementary schools to continue to advance PLTW education statewide. In addition, your State Leadership team continues to advocate for teacher training and licensure improvements. In order to continue to be a resource, the PLTW team at MSOE is continuing to develop additional resources in the form of VEX support, competitions and collegiate alumni groups. All of these are ways that we can continue to work together to increase the quantity and quality of PLTW teachers and consequently, STEM graduates in Wisconsin. On behalf of the Wisconsin PLTW State Leadership Team, our workforce partners and conference sponsors, we hope you have a great time during this conference and walk away with new ideas and energy for your classrooms. Warmest regards, Here are some other things they like: • Small class sizes • Direct entry into the program of their choice—no waiting lists! • Expert professors with years of industry experience • MSOE has more laboratories than classrooms • Guaranteed graduation in four years • Average scholarship and grant amount is $21,465 • Free graduate school tuition at MSOE for graduates who meet certain qualifications Joshua Schultz, Ph.D. Director PLTW-Wisconsin Marv Bollman Associate Director Engineering Patricia Deibert Associate Director Biomedical/Launch Hani Weckwerth Associate Director Operations Keynote Speakers Pre-College STEM Programs Secretary Reggie Newson Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD) Secretary Reggie Newson leads the state agency charged with building the workforce to move Wisconsin forward.
