| Welcome to the FIND YOUR FUTURE webquest! I would like for you to go to the website listed above. Once you are there, you are to pick a "Career Cluster" on the left-hand side of the page. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Once you have chosen a "Career Cluster", I'd like for you to find out a little more about that area of our work force. Answer the following questions: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1.What do you find interesting about this Career Cluster? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2.What type of job would you be interested in doing specifically within this cluster and WHY? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. What types of skills do you need in order to do this job? (Pick a minimum of 3 and DESCRIBE WHY YOU WOULD NEED THEM) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Next, if your career requires a college education, I would like for you to click on the "Find a College" section. Then click on the "Search for a college" section. Using the search criteria, find THREE colleges that fit your needs and then tell me the following information | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1. Their name | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. Location | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. Tuition | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. Requirements for admission | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| If your career did NOT require a college education, you must tell me what sort of training you will need, how long it will take, and any certifications that you must receive in order to do your job. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Finally, I want you to come up with a "5 year plan" to achieving your goals. Tell me: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1. What you must do EACH YEAR in order to obtain your chosen career | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2.What you can expect to get at the end of your "5 year plan" | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The point of this assignment is for you to see HOW MUCH YOU CAN ACHIEVE IN YOUR LIFE! As your teacher, I am very proud of you, and I WANT YOU TO BE PROUD OF YOURSELF!!!!!!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
