Dear Class: (2-8 & 11)

 Learning Targets:

Know the acronym PACE, the purpose of this class, and how it will benefit them. 

Know how to navigate the class website to complete class work.

Understand the value of self-assessments.

​
Activities: Students you will work on the following today: 

1.  Warm-Up:  

• Warm-Up: Take the Meyer's Briggs survey. Copy and paste your results into a Google document: Create a doc and label it:  Meyers_Briggs.  We will be further exploring this in more detail later.  Go to "Career Choices" on the right side and then Screen Shot it and crop it.

Take the Briggs/Meyers/Jung test at this link.

2.  We will be doing the CIS "Interest Profiler" that is at the website for CIS The user name is "ddouglas" and the password is "ddhs".  Create an account by going to "My Portfolio".   For your user name, use your student id.  For the password, use your first initial of your first name in capital letter, first letter of your last name in lower case, and then your student id.

Go to the tab "Explore Resources", then "Occupations", then"Tools for Occupation",  then "Interest Profiler" (not the short one!).  Answer all 172 questions to the best of your ability and then copy and paste the screen(s) (whole thing will not fit on one page) into a document you created named "Interest_Profiler".  Look at jobs suggested for your top.  You are going to pick three of them and write a work of art based on why!!!

We will go over the shared documents you produced.
 
Side Note:  If an assignment asks for minimum of 3-5 sentences, that is a D/C-.  I look at "A" work as 3-4 in depth paragraphs.  A "B" would be 2-3 paragraphs and a "C" would be a strong paragraph of "Thorough reflection of the assignment.  You can elect to get college credit for this class.  I make notations in my book regarding your effort for each assignment.  This class will be one of the most important classes you will take.  I am giving you time to "explore".  There is generally no "Right or Wrong" here...rather an opportunity to explore.  This is "Participation".  If you cease to work on an assignment in class and I see that, I will grade the work at that particular time and take into consideration the time and effort put into the work!
