In collaboration with the Idaho Department of Education, these videos will showcase how math is used across different career paths, directly linking industry skills to high school content standards.
IdahoPTV’s education department will align existing PreK–3 curriculum resources from PBS KIDS with Idaho’s College and Career Readiness Competencies to identify alignment and content gaps. Once gaps are determined, IdahoPTV will collaborate with the Workforce Development Council and elementary educators to develop new resources that ensure all competencies are addressed.
Every other month, Matthew will share multiple videos highlighting important soft skills that transfer to whatever career path you choose. Skills such as problem-solving, time management, communication, and teamwork are usually not found on course curriculums, but they can make all the difference to potential employers.
