The four parts of the workbook can be used independently or sequentially. I. Twelve Career Clusters are presented along with student activities. After all clusters have been explored, students perform a self-scoring activity which defines clusters where they have a high, medium, or low interest. Students are asked to examine their current school, home, and leisure activities to connect them with the career concept. Developing general academic and specific job-related skills are explored.
Students discover the importance of work habits and teamwork skills at school, home, and on the job.
This section also covers the variety of education and training options available to them in the future. Making Travel Plans teaches students how to research careers. Students explore reference materials at school, in the community, and in public libraries. This separate portfolio becomes a permanent part of the student's record.
