Transforming Lives for a Strong America

Session Premise We know research provides evidence that "education with a purpose" will result in more student engagement. Happily, implementing Career Pathways (CP) activities into existing curriculum provides students education with a purpose. The problem: How do we find the time to design and plan new activities and lesson plans? We are all busy, busy people!

Session Agenda 1.Share ideas on incorporating CP into existing language arts activities 2.Share CP-related activities and lesson plans 3.Brainstorm with session participants

Lets dive in!

One Easy Way If it is a writing prompt, put a CP spin on it. If you can relate a writing assignment to real life, and CP is real life, then writing will become more engaging to students! Bonus: No more, Why do we have to do this? This is stupid! Why? If its about them, their future, our frequently ego-centric students will be more engaged. Does that mean we are giving up core academics? Absolutely not! We are incorporating CP components into our already existing language arts curriculum.

Situation I Creative Writing Old curriculum Question: How can I quickly incorporate Career Pathways activities?

CP Activities for Creative Writing Narrative Essay: 5 Years Down the Road Handout One Act Play: 10 Years Down the Road Handout Note: I used modified grading rubrics that I had created for an English II course.

CP Activities for English IV Diagnostic Essay: CP Prompts Handout Research Paper Topic: CP Choices Handout

CP Activities for Business English So You Want to be an Entrepreneur Careers in Transportation Resumes and Cover Letters Templates Available in Microsoft Word

Basics Oftentimes, both instructors and students need to learn the basics. Our tech-savvy students may know all about downloading music; however, they may have no idea how to double space or paginate a document. Word 2007 Mastery Handout PowerPoint Mastery Handout

Strategy / Group Activity Activity Steps 1.Choose a session participants suggested course. 2.Find the course description / standards online. 3.Use Word 2007 comment function. 4. Brainstorm and insert CP ideas via comments. 5. Send to participant(s).
