Maltas secondary school students in the workshop “for the future” simulate their future profession
At the end of November, Maltas secondary school students in classes 8a, 8c, 9a and 9c had the opportunity to think about their future career in a career development support event — a workshop for your future. Event 8 began with a circular discussion on the potential for further education, an opportunity to choose a profession for life. Discussions on whether any professions could disappear and would not be necessary in the future. Students expressed their willingness to choose their future profession, which will be important to them. In activity related to pupils' interests, students could exchange places with others who share common interests and hobbies. The participants were able to express their thoughts on how to link their hobbies to the future profession. Students believe that parents can help in the choice of a profession, but sometimes inhibit. In the next activity, pupils divided the assigned professions into groups: man-nature, technique, creativity, help to others, and man-body, health. The pupils selected 2 professions from each group and displayed them in the “silent show”, allowing the other participants to remember them.
Class 9 pupils discussed what professions might not be required in the future, or the choice of their future profession could be influenced by someone. The pupils shared their thoughts on the high school and technicality and mines that were important when choosing a profession. In the discussion on the skills needed, the pupils expressed their thoughts on what they had, the strengths and possible mines. The participants also acknowledged how much they would be willing to accept their career decision. In activity, pupils chose 5 interested professions and explained why they seemed closest to them.
In conclusion, the pupils acknowledged that this career support measure allowed them to reconsider and reconsider their future plans.
The event “for the future of the workshop” “was organised in the ietvaros of project No. 8.3.5.0/16/I/001“ career support in general and vocational education institutions ”.
