What general advice would you give to a Manufacturing Teacher?
Peter Alter Ph.D.: Public school salary systems are determined by years of teaching (sometimes called Steps) and level of education. Get a Master's degree. Add an authorization via coursework. Anything that will move you over a column on the salary schedule. Then figure out your side hustle- coaching, tutoring, doing something completely away from education. This may be challenging in your first year but as you get acclimated, you are going to have more time that you will be able to monetize.

How do you envision technology impacting Manufacturing Teachers in the next 5 years?
Dr. Lisa Mastrangel Ph.D.: Because many of the jobs will be online, technological skills will be vital.
Are there any particularly good places in the United States for Manufacturing Teachers to find work opportunities?
Bret Cormier: Yes, we have already received numerous inquiries from districts in and around New England, and we have been in school less than a month, so I imagine that will continue moving forward. We have received inquiries from as far as Hawaii, where school districts there a looking to fill numerous jobs as well as various positions. As previously stated, we also have a lot of interest from our district and community partners, where many of our students conduct field observations, as well as student teaching.
What technology do you think will become more important and prevalent for Manufacturing Teachers in the next 3-5 years?
Dr. Diana Jones: Technology in the next 3-5 years -- That is a tough question because technology is continually changing. However, I would say whatever learning system their school provides (e.g., Canvas, Blackboard, etc.), they should get to know. Also, the technology that involves making/editing videos of teaching would be necessary. The technique that includes exercise, fitness, sports such as heart rate monitors, Fitbits, etc. Finally, a technology that allows interactions between teachers and students and students and students.
