CASE: Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education

CASE is an ambitious project started by the National Council for Agricultural Education in 2007. The project goal is to implement a national curriculum for secondary agricultural education that provides a high level of educational experiences to enhance the rigor and relevance of agriculture, food, and natural resources (AFNR) subject matter. Besides elevating the rigor of AFNR knowledge and skills, CASE provides purposeful enhancement of science, mathematics, and English language understanding.

CASE develops curriculum utilizing science inquiry for lesson foundation and concepts are taught using activity-, project-, and problem-base instructional strategies. In addition to the curriculum aspect of CASE, the project ensures quality teaching by providing extensive professional development for teachers that leads to certification.

LAB-AIDS is proud of our strong relationship with NAAEE and FFA. The CASE curriculum directly correlates to the overall LAB-AIDS philosophy of providing true inquiry-based learning experiences to students. After all, students learn best by doing science, not just reading about it.

Lab-Aids provides materials for the following courses:

• Introduction to Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources
   
• The Principles of Agricultural Science – Animal
   
• The Principles of Agricultural Science – Plant
