| Abstract | This practicum was designed to help college-bound sophomores make connections between English class and the world of work so that they could make informed decisions about college and career choices. The target population was 90 honors-level 10th grade English students on an interdisciplinary team. The setting was a predominately middle class, suburban high school. The writer used a combination of strategies to connect students to the workforce. She designed a shadowing program matching students for a day with career professionals, developed an employability skills portfolio model, organized an in-school Career Day, and arranged for students to access software matching their interests to college options. Analysis of the data revealed students' ability to cite career choices based on reasons other than prestige and media stereotypes. Additionally, they were able to describe realistically a typical day in the career of their choice, and to document at least eight skills necessary to success in English and success in the workplace. Appendices include selected course materials, parents' survey, and sample interview questions. Contains 26 references. (Author) |
