Dr. Hanagriff Round Two!

AET: Round 2

This is the second time that AEE 311 has had a chance to talk with Dr. Hanagriff. Earlier in the year Dr. Hanagriff spoke with AEE 311 about what AET was, why it was developed, and the basis of how it works. This time they have worked with the system and have come back with questions. Here are some points:

• Calendar leads into:
• National Chapter Award
• POA
• Website
• Reports
• AET is used to save the Ag teacher money and keep them organized.
• American Degree is a summary of what you've done.
• AET can be used to input all students in an agriculture, then place certain ones in FFA (PA is inclusive)
• Experience Manager is a great over view of all projects.
• New grading tools (because SAE is a crucial part of the program that should be weighted with a grade.)
• SAE Assessment tab
• Gives feedback for students and builds a teacher's journal (which helps build teacher contracts)

• Show growth.
