  1. The Future Is Limitless Presented by: Nick Neace, Chris Herlihy, Mike Livingston, Chloe Arias, and Brian Jeffrey

  2. Interdisciplinary Lesson Plans • These cross-curricular lesson plans will help students understand the breadth of opportunities available to them. • They will be able to research, investigate, and self- explore. • Students will be given opportunities to interact with others in pair-shares, partake in whole class activities, and grow as an independent learner

  3. Integrative Purpose • The purpose of this unit is to help students take the first step in setting career goals. • This curriculum focuses on the unique academic, personal, and social needs of high school learners, providing opportunities for them to explore career clusters while developing foundational knowledge and skills applicable to all career fields. • Our goal was to include engaging opportunities for students to discover career possibilities and how these possibilities align with their personal goals and interests.

  4. Humanitarian Transformation • Students are moving from school to life and need to understand career planning as a continuous process directed by changes in the workplace and the goals of the worker. • Career and life role education helps students prepare to integrate the demands of six life roles (i.e., individual, learner, producer, consumer, family member and citizen) into family, community and work settings. • Career and life role education helps students connect the personal side of their lives ("learning to live") to educational growth ("loving to learn") and career development (“living to learn").

  5. Cross Curricular Connection • Common Prep Period • Students will research careers they are interested in. They will then select one career to conduct a historical investigation based on the career of their choice. Next, they will analyze and compute the data associated with the career they chose. • Additionally, students will write an all inclusive, MLA report, detailing their career, findings, and results. Finally, students will create a PowerPoint presentation based on their report and present it to their peers for evaluation.
