In this episode, Lindsey chats with Kevin Fox from Stanislaus County Office of Education.
Kevin shares insights into the curriculum developed in collaboration with Knorr-Bremse Global Cares Trucking foundation. The program emphasizes character education and community building while addressing challenges such as the shortage of qualified Career and Technical Education (CTE) instructors. The curriculum, designed to be user-friendly and adaptable, includes daily updates and utilizes Google Classroom to facilitate learning in a restricted environment. Innovative teaching aids, such as model trucks and RC vehicles, were discussed to enhance hands-on learning, along with plans to incorporate a driver simulator for realistic training. The program aims to foster interest in various trucking careers, emphasizing entrepreneurship and aligning with Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) requirements. Key action items include implementing the driver simulator, solidifying partnerships with local trucking schools, and acquiring additional teaching aids to enrich the educational experience.
