______________________________________________________________________ 

We will take a break from the Final Project.  Make sure the document "Final Project" is in your shared folder!

1.  Link "Why College?".  Make a copy of the document to be filled in.

"A" = 4 colleges, universities, trade schools or other "learning institutions".
"B" = 3 of the same
"C" = 2 of the same

 I will also be doing "participation" points for this activity.  If I see that you have done all of your research for the rest of your life in less than 2 periods, then you are not really giving the assignment any type of evaluation and as such I will deduct points for work being done.

1. Section 3 of our key curriculum: Post-secondary Education
   Lookup Programs of Study for your career choice in CIS
   Complete the handout as directed. "Why College?"
2. Complete 3 slides related to post-secondary planning--
   Create a high school course plan- see example.
   Create a post-secondary course plan.
   Summarize in a table your findings about each school researched. 

How to do it?  Go to CIS, sign in.  Go to "Occupations"; "Explore Occupations" and select the occupation you used for your Summary in your resume.  On the left side, go down until you see the "Programs of Study"; select which one.  Select the area of your occupation you are interested in.  On the left side column, choose "Oregon Schools" or "US Schools" to explore and complete the "Why College?" template provided above.

You have to explore at least two schools even if you do not plan on attending a higher institution.  Things happen... sometimes for the better...sometimes for the worse.  You need to be prepared!

2.  Continue with the Final Project "Where am I going" "How do I get there":  When working on the final project, refer to the slide tutorial in the link. LINK: FINAL PROJECT 2016-17

Create slides.. Finish photoshopped picture and insert in first slide.
 Table of Contents--Scoring Guide Create a slide entitled "Table of Contents".  Copy and paste in each of them.

Paceography- a brief biography of you as a person, student and tekkie.  Document copy is to the right on the menu.

 You must cite all of your pictures for credit.   If they are not cited, I will actually deduct points since the issues of copyright violation is apparent.
