Arizona Department Of Education Essay

938 Words4 Pages

In reviewing the Arizona Department of Education’s, (ADE) career and technical education (CTE) program standards for the emergency medical services (EMT), it became clear that the State of Arizona operates from an abbreviated version of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) standards. The curriculum for EMT is a national standard curriculum and is the foundation of EMS prehospital training. In addition, the new curriculum parallels the recommendations of the National EMS Education. The ADE, uses the National Registry for Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) testing as the summative assessment upon completion of the program secondary and post-secondary schools. Although the ADE has a significant role in the continuous success of EMT programs and curriculum, the students and educational programs are directed by the Arizona Bureau of Emergency Medical Services (AZBEMS).

It is also standard that this information might differ from locality to locality, and that each training program, or system should identify and provide special training

  • Honor Code Essay

    954 Words  | 4 Pages

    A number of high schools, colleges, and universities have adopted an honor code to cultivate integrity amongst students at their institution. These principles vary from cheating to tardiness, to plagiarism and have garnered praise from multiple outlets for apparently being successful in preventing cheating and enforcing punishment for those who break the rules. However, others like myself, criticize the honor code due to skepticism in its abilities to prevent such rule breaking, its success in being enforced, and whether it would actually convince a student to not cheat. If Windham High School were to establish an honor code, it would be a failure given that it would not encourage students to abstain from breaking it. Academic institutions

The primary school syllabi are part of the Ten Year Basic Education Programme (1995), as a response to the Revised National Policy on Education (RNPE, 1994), a document that, 20 years later, still resonates as a key determinant of which direction education should be going in, though somewhat superseded by the Botswana Education for All – National Action Plan of 2002 (EFA – ENA, 2002).
