Orientation to Self and Career: Constructivist Theory and Practice in the Classroom
Grier-Reed, Tabitha L.; Conkel-Ziebell, Julia L.
Learning Assistance Review, v14 n1 p23-36 Spr 2009
As the world of work becomes increasingly dynamic and complex, career courses must shift to reflect the growing diversity of those in the beginning stages of career exploration. Constructivist career development has emerged as one way to help young adults meet the challenges of the 21st century. Yet, there is a dearth of constructivist career development curricula and coursework. The current paper provides a detailed overview of one constructivist career course for culturally diverse college students called "Orientation to Self and Career." The paper includes a description of the course's theoretical underpinnings, modules, activities, and outcomes. (Contains 2 tables.)
