6 7 44 Agricultural Education’s Long-Range Goal,“10 x 15”
oday, agricultural education is at a crossroads. The need of American agriculture to secure a highly educated, talented and motivated Tworkforce has never been greater, while the pressure to hold public schools accountable for academic achievement in math and sciences has never been more intense. Agricultural education faces twin challenges to improve both the quality of our programs and the number of students and communities they serve. The goal of “10 x 15” as embraced by each sector of our profession is clear:
By 2015, there will be in operation 10,000 quality agricultural science education programs serving students through an integrated model of classroom/laboratory instruction, experiential learning, and leadership and personal skill development. Further, all students will be members of FFA and have a supervised agricultural experience that supports classroom and laboratory instruction.
Working under direction of The National Council for Agricultural Education, the “10 x 15” Management Team has articulated eight strategic themes and identified eight high-priority initiatives. Those themes are: 1. Program Standards for Agricultural Education 2. Link Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources Content Standards to National Academic Content Standards 3. Develop Multiple Agricultural Education Designs 4. Program Data Reporting 5. Agricultural Educator Recruitment 6. Agricultural Education Advocacy Strategy 7. Agricultural Education Brand Strategy 8. Program Funding Strategy These themes represent a manageable body of work that can yield the greatest results in carrying agricultural education successfully into the future. The National FFA Foundation will play a pivotal role in identifying and securing the resources that will allow agricultural education to meet the needs of the agricultural industry and the students necessary to fill the industry needs.
