SAE is one of the most unique educational tools at our
disposal as agriscience educators. SAEs have long standing impact on the lives
of students. SAEs are not optional.
Story #8- Pennsylvania
A male freshman student takes on a SAE project
in grain and beef production, also has an interest in the changing world of
farming equipment. Continues the SAE and conducts his own research on
farming equipment. Attends Governor's School for Ag Sciences at PSU
during his junior year of high school. The Fall of his senior year he applies
to Cornell University and is accepted into their animal science program.
Applies for Outstanding Ag Science student in PA and is awarded that honor due
to his SAE and research on large bales and their feeding to beef cattle.
Attends Cornell and earns a degree in Animal Science and Ag Education and now
operates a beef & grain operation and has taught Ag Education in PA at
Central Columbia for 15 years.
Submitting Teacher: Mr. Doug Brown
SAE Theorem #6
(Moore, 2003, The Agricultural Education Magazine)
Records should be kept on SAE. The research literature
indicates one of the greatest benefits of having a SAE program is learning how
to keep records. No matter what one does in life, record keeping is an
important skill. Therefore, accurate and complete records should be kept on the
SAE.
You are a developing positive agent of change who will one
day help students explore and grow into their unlimited potential through
agricultural education!
