Writing a Research Paper? Try Career Research

Many students are overwhelmed by the seemingly insurmountable task of writing a research paper and emerging writers often shut down because there's just too much to think about. As secondary teachers with nearly 40 students in each class, we, too, were overwhelmed. How could we make sure our students learned the skills they need to perform research if we didn't create a situation that enabled students to fulfill specific parameters for the assignment? We decided on the two skills we wanted to focus on developing with our students and created an assignment that would give them an opportunity to practice and develop proficiency while also giving them the element of autonomy we've often come to equate with the yearly research paper project. In this episode, we share the career research website we used as a foundational, required resource for our career research activity. Here's the link to the CareerOneStop website for you!
