Facilitator's Guide to Staff Training for the Rural America Series. Module 1: Understanding the Need. Research and Development Series No. 149B.
Altschuld, James W.; And Others
This module, one of a series designed for facilitators training rural career guidance program staff, is designed to give participants a better understanding of the career development needs of students in rural schools--schools that often have limited resources. After the module is introduced, participants complete a warm-up activity, i.e., a picture puzzle. This activity is followed by a short presentation on the unique nature of the rural environment (school, home, community) as it affects career development, and an overview of the "Rural America Series." Participants are then divided into small groups and asked to read and analyze specially designed profiles. Following this activity, large group-focused discussion is used to draw out salient features of the profiles. This activity leads into the presentation of the Life Role Development Model and the 26 suggested goals relating to the model. The approximately 2-hour module ends with a summary of how an understanding of need is essential for the planning process. Stress is placed on the fact that the module provides the theoretical underpinning for that planning. The guidebook contains a module overview, facilitator's outline, participant materials, and transparency masters. (NEC)
