Instructional Ideas

  • As they research, ask pupils to record requirements for courses or programs they plan to enroll in; the list makes a great starting point for a goal-setting activity
  • Invite a guidance counselor to assist with getting learners enrolled into the courses they need

Classroom Considerations

  • Modify the lesson's materials to reflect your state and district career resources and graduation requirements
  • It is best to complete the resource early in the year, so scholars have time to modify their course schedules, if necessary

Pros

  • Oral presentations are an excellent way to communicate information with the rest of the class, as well as build public speaking skills
  • The lesson is thorough and full of links and related activities

Cons

  • None
