Career Development Curriculum for English Teachers.
Anderson, Paul; And Others
This publication describes classroom activities that English teachers can use in helping junior high school students to explore individual career goals. Designed to increase students' awareness of occupations related both directly and indirectly to English skills, the activities are organized into four sections: (1) Who Am I? (2) What Are the Life Options Available? (3) What Should I Consider When Investigating an Occupation? and (4) What Do I Do Next? (Goal-setting). Each section presents the rationale for the activities, lists career development objectives for the section, and provides detailed descriptions of specific learning activities. Appendixes for the four sections offer numerous materials to be used in conjunction with the activities. Among these materials are a values survey; a sample family occupational tree; guidelines for using the study of literary characters to facilitate students' career development; an occupational survey form; self-evaluation charts; charts through which students can appraise their abilities, explore their values, and learn decision-making skills; and bibliographies of books about women, books that deal with values, books about ecology, books related to career development, and biographies.
