Designed for use with youth offenders, this teacher's guide contains five modules on job survival skills, including planning job-hunting strategies, applying for a job, interviewing skills, and work attitudes.
Abstract
The module titles include the following: motivation/orientation to job survival skills; matching values, skills, and interests to jobs; job-seeking skills; job-getting skills; and job maintaining skills. The first part of the guide lists the student performance objectives for each module. The second part contains module performance records sheets to be used to record student achievement of each module's performance objectives. The third part provides daily lesson plans (3 to 20 days for each module). This guide is intended to be used with audiovisual aids from which students can learn appropriate behaviors, and avoid pitfalls, to maximize their chances to find and keep a job. In addition to the lesson plan, a list of materials and equipment needed, performance objectives, teacher preparation activities, and worksheet are provided. (ERIC abstract modified).
