Facilitator's Guide to Staff Training for the Rural America Series. Module VI: Career Guidance Practices. Research and Development Series No. 149G.
Altschuld, James W.; And Others
This module of the staff training series deals with techniques for developing career guidance programs in three settings--the home, the community, and the school. Suggestions and experiences are outlined to help practitioners gain skill in designing career guidance practices appropriate to these environments. Home-centered career guidance practices cited include family travel units, parent training nights, parent discussion groups, problem solving, and a career development parent series. Community-centered practices discussed are career fairs, professional exploration internships, community persons as classroom resources, and adopt-a-grandchild programs. Three categories of school-centered career guidance opportunities are presented with suggestions for each: group counseling methods (teaming, role playing, orientation, gaming, and peer counseling), subject matter activities (stereotypes in the world of work, workers in the community, and "I'm Different--Are You?"), and nonsubject matter activities (career resource centers, "Pow-Wows," career weeks, hobby time, and a mobile guidance van). Elements of an implementation outline are also considered: activity title, activity description, and career development goals and subgoals, behavioral objectives, time considerations, prerequisite learnings, teacher/counselor activities, student activities, resources, and evaluation.
