Project Overview
Public Product
Students will create an infographic or handout that school counselors can use when providing career counseling. They can also be available in school library or career center offices.
Project Summary
Students will research a career of interest using online and “live” resources (e.g. job shadow, informational interview) and reflect on it to determine if that career is a fit for them based on their interests, skills/abilities, aptitudes, and personality. Through this project, students will complete the Holland Code Interest Inventory, Myers-Briggs, utilize online resources (e.g O-Net, Occupational Outlook Handbook, Career One Stop), and complete a job shadow and/or multiple informational interviews. Students will also explore one career cluster using the career map packets developed by JMG.
