Family and Consumer Sciences Programs
The CTE Assessment and Program Matrix is designed to provide school districts with information needed for designing programs, submitting program approval applications and for EMIS data reporting.
Family and Consumer Sciences programs must administer End of Course tests (WebXam) to students in grades 9-12. These valid and reliable tests are a tool that can be used for continuous improvement of courses offered. Because these courses are not classified as workforce development, the tests are not used in calculating the state technical skill attainment indicator of performance (2S1). However, the test will be utilized in the annual review of FCS programs. FCS test data will be collected in the EMIS Assessment Window.
Approval of new Career-Technical Education pathway program applications or applications for renewal of existing pathway programs is contingent upon complying with Ohio Department of Education Assurances and that evidence of compliance is maintained on file.
Teacher/Adviser Success Series (Workshop #2)
This program is designed to support Family and Consumer Sciences educators and FCCLA Advisers during their 1st through 5th years of teaching. The Ohio Department of Education staff, along with the Ohio Association Teachers of Family and Consumer Sciences and seasoned teachers, will provide teachers in their first years of teaching with information as it relates to the three components of Family and Consumer Sciences Education: Classroom/Lab Instruction, FCCLA, and Experiential Learning within these professional development sessions.

New: Baking and Pastry Arts Performance Assessment
In order to earn college credit under the new CTAN developed by ODHE in Baking and Pastry Arts, students must complete a performance assessment. The assessment will ask students to follow a standardized pastry recipe to demonstrate their practical baking skills. In October 2020, instructors produced a checklist to assess students on each phase of the cooking process. In addition, they created a rubric to evaluate the quality of the final product. These materials were validated through a survey sent to all current Baking & Pastry Arts instructors. After piloting the performance assessment, we are field testing the performance assessment on all students enrolled in the course this school year.
