GLC 2O5 Careers

What’s the course about? This course teaches students how to develop and achieve personal goals for future learning, work, and community involvement. Students will assess their interests, skills, and characteristics, and investigate current economic and workplace trends, work opportunities, and ways to search for work. The course explores postsecondary learning and career options, prepares students for managing work and life transitions, and helps students focus on their goals through the development of a career plan. Students will be expected to . . . Identify their personal interests and abilities in relation to short term and long term employment goals; Research a variety of postsecondary options most closely linked to these strengths and goals; Create a career path, considering necessary courses, experience, finance, etc. for future employment; Maintain a portfolio for career planning purposes, as well as for use in attaining future employment.

How can I be successful in this course? Show up on time, ready to work. Participate as much as possible, and listen to what others have to say. Ask questions if I don’t understand something, or need extra help. Hand my assignments in on time, or ask the teacher for extra time and help, if needed. Make sure to pick up missed assignments if I’m sick or away from class. Be respectful of myself, my classmates, my teacher, and my classroom.

Basic Course Policies Attendance Attend regularly to ensure that you have the most up-to-date knowledge of what is being studied, what assignments are coming due, and the individual expectations of each task. If you are away, consult the course envelopes (marked by dates) for missed hand outs, etc. Hand outs will remain in the dated folder for at least one week, or until the date is changed. Digital copies of most assignments can also be found in Students Common in the Nugent folder. It is your responsibility to keep me informed of absences due to extracurricular activities, family commitments, etc. if they are known ahead of time. It is also your responsibility to ensure that you are caught up on what has been missed while you’re away.

Basic Course Policies Late Policy Deadlines will be assigned for all major assignments. It is important that you work to meet these deadlines, using the time and resources provided to complete the assignment. If you think that you will be unable to complete an assignment in the time required, it’s your responsibility to speak with the teacher and negotiate an appropriate extension. In order for the assignment to be graded, this new deadline must be met, or else a grade of “zero” will be awarded. Once any assignment has been marked and returned to the class, students who have yet to complete the assignment can no longer submit this work as a late submission, and a grade of “zero” will be awarded. Alternative assignments can be discussed with the teacher should you take the initiative to arrange make up work. Exceptions to the late policy will be made in the case of medical necessity, bereavement, or other exceptional circumstances.

Mandatory Assignments Culminating Task: Career Portfolio The final assignment for this course is a Career Portfolio – a collection of the work you do throughout the course, as well as work you’ve done leading up to this point, aimed at keeping you on track and prepared for the future. You will have the entire term to work on this assignment, so use your time wisely, and complete pieces of the portfolio as you go. Leaving your portfolio to the last minute will absolutely result in your feeling stressed and overwhelmed come the last few weeks of class. There is lots of time to complete your Portfolio if you do a little bit each week! Your Career Portfolio is worth 20% of your final grade, and must be attempted to qualify for a credit in this course. Let’s look at the outline now.

Mandatory Assignments Exam: Exit Interview During the second half of the course, we will be focusing on practical skills you can bring to the world of work. As such, part of our time will be spent on communication skills, and, in particular, how to conduct yourself appropriately during an interview. The final exam for Careers is therefore an interview based on a job posting you will have previously selected. You will be asked five (5) questions during your interview, and your responses will be ranked on a scale of 1 (ineffective) to 1o (extremely effective). In addition to the responses to these questions, your level of preparedness and professionalism will be assessed, resulting in an overall exam mark out of 60. Your Exit Interview is worth 10% of your final grade, and must be attempted to qualify for a credit in this course. An outline will be provided during the second half of this course.

Today’s Activity: What are Multiple Intelligences? Howard Gardner, a professor of education at Harvard University, proposed that every person has different levels of aptitude in the following eight categories: Linguistic Musical Logical-Mathematical Spatial Kinesthetic Intrapersonal Interpersonal Naturalist If he is correct, it is likely that individuals have different levels of aptitude within these intelligences; what varies between people are their relative strengths and weaknesses within each category.

Today’s Activity: What are Multiple Intelligences? Using the Rogers Indicator of Multiple Intelligences, complete this 56 question quiz to determine your personal levels of aptitude based on Gardner’s proposed definitions: http://www.personal.psu.edu/bxb11/MI/MIQuiz.htm When you have completed the quiz, PRINT OFF YOUR RESULTS. Once you have determined the breakdown of your eight intelligences, create a personalized “Mind Map” using the provided silhouette. Divide the silhouette into eight sections, basing each section’s size on your corresponding score from the quiz. For example, if you scored strongly in “spatial” intelligence, yet poorly in “musical” intelligence, your spatial section would be much larger than your musical section. Once divided, label each section of your silhouette with its corresponding intelligence. Then, using words, drawings, clipart, etc., create a personal interpretation of how each intelligence relates to your personal identity. (Refer to the definitions of each intelligence provided to help you complete each section’s description).

Examples

Today’s Activity: What are Multiple Intelligences? The goal of this assignment is to . . . reflect on the different ways in which you learn best consider how your personal relationships, interests, and choices may relate to the intelligences in which you are the strongest create an abstract representation of yourself that would provide others with an innate look at the ways in which you act and think, as well as tell a story about the kind of person you consider yourself to be DUE FRIDAY, APRIL 25th, 2014
