Project S.P.I.C.E.: Special Partnership in Career Education. Career/Educational Awareness Teaching Module

Abstract

The career/educational awareness teaching module is one of a series of six modules prepared by Project SPICE (Special Partnership in Career Education) as a means of providing career awareness information to educable mentally handicapped students (ages 11-to-13 years). After an overview, a module profile is provided which charts the activities and resources or materials needed. The objectives of the module are to enable the student to name 10 worker titles, name the school subject most needed by each, name the level of education required for each from a list of 10 worker titles, name three jobs which need the most education/training from a list of 10 worker titles, and name three jobs which need the least education/training from the same list. Appended are student resource materials. Also included is the Project SPICE Activity Book, which was designed to reinforce students' learning. (PHR)
