A career involves a series of jobs or specific positions so that finding them becomes an important part of career development. The course includes a variety of activities, some required, some optional, that incorporate campus resources for careers exploration as well as those beyond the campus. Worksheets from assigned chapters may be handed-in as well as writeups of activities that are optional. Some of the optional activities occur in class. There are two kinds of activities, required and optional.
Students receive one activity point for each two chapters that they complete successfully.
All fourteen chapters are required, so that at the end of the semester, you will have seven activities credits from these required readings. Since students come to the course at very different levels in the development of their career interests, the same set of experiences are not appropriate for everyone. Therefore I allow students to complete the course requirements by choosing from a menu of career related activities that are optional . Students choose activities for participation, attend the activities and complete one-page writeups and bring any handouts to class. Surely a knowledge of the subfields or specialities in psychology.
