WHO AM I?

This webquest was created for an 8th grade career exploration class with an integration of technology.  It could also be used at the high school level.

This unit will take about 8 weeks to complete.  Prior to the budget exercise, it is very helpful to help the students understand what a budget is and why it is needed. 

I usually incorporate resume writing, cover letters, and interviews at the end of the unit if time warrants.  It gives the students a complete picture of the whole career process.

Be sure to edit the budget to reflect the minimum wage increases.

Career Cruising does require registering and opening up an account through your school.
