In keeping
with our exploratory theme, I’m featuring these “Career Roadmaps” which were
developed by CRC staff. This resource
features information on 18 broad occupational categories, including ComputerScience, Consulting,
Greenand Environmental, and SocialService and Non-Profit. The individual
pdfs for each career category offers students a quick description of each
field, needed skills, examples of careers, related student organizations, and
even a list of links to local volunteer opportunities that will allow students
to explore a field.
Need a handy
“to do” list to give a student who tells you she has no idea what she wants to
do with her life? CLAS’ “Top Ten Ways to
Explore with Purpose” webpage—a totally bookmark- worthy site—is a tool that
gives UF students concrete steps to finding a stronger sense of direction. The Exploratory Resources page, also worth reviewing, offers a comprehensive list of
resources for exploratory students and their advisors.
This
colorful infographic provides insight on how college students are using
technology, how much they’re spending on electronics, the new tech tools and
apps they’re using, and the future of the classroom. Here’s one interesting tidbit: 38% of college students can’t go more than 10
minutes without checking their email or smartphone! I found this article on the
Edudemic website which has lots of cool
education and technology articles.
Expect to see more “tools” from here . . .
