Architecture and Construction

Students have just finished researching the Architecture and Construction career cluster. I'm curious to know how the two careers they looked at are similar and how they are different. I'm also interested to know if either of those two careers relate in any way to their chosen career. It should be interesting to read their posts!

Comparisons

Now that you have completed some research on your chosen career (careercruising.com), how does it measure up to a career in Human Services? Please make a note of the two careers by name and write about what they have in common. Use your fact sheets to compare the two. After comparing the two careers, decide and write about what those similarities mean to you. Could you work in Human Services? Does it confirm your chosen career and academy or does it make you want to change it?

Why is it important for you to understand personalities in the workplace? Think of both, knowing your own personality, as well as knowing how to recognize other people's personalities.

Reflections (in the mirror?)

Students have been researching the Finance cluster. I would like for them to reflect on three similarities and three differences in that cluster (a total of six items). After that, I'd like for them to reflect on what they have learned (the takeaway) about that cluster.

Government and Public Administration

Today, I'd like students to compare the two careers they researched in the Government and Public Administration cluster. This being election day, it seems like a timely topic!

This Week in Review!

This was a busy week indeed in Career Exploration class. I'm always telling my classes that I have a plan for them and that we are headed in a direction to accomplish a goal. Sometimes students are able to influence that direction and goal by adding their suggestions and input. This week, I'd like to read about my students' reflections on what we did in class and why we did it. Hopefully I did a good job of letting them know what the plan was/is. Their responses should be interesting!
