I have been using the following sites this week with 8th graders, and they
are working very well:
Bridges-has a neat skills/interest quiz and then gives a list of recommended
occupations. I used this to introduce the unit with all the students.
Visually appealing.
www.mi.cx.bridges.com <http://www.mi.cx.bridges.com/>
Get Tech-has lots of info about ALL KINDS of jobs that use technology,
including computer, medical, engineering, and other areas
www.gettech.org <http://www.gettech.org/>
Career Info Net- has a section with downloadable video clips on many
careers. However, I recommended that students try this from home so the
network is not overwhelmed with video downloading.
www.careernet.org <http://www.careernet.org/>
Find Careers at iseek-another site with information on many different
careers
www.iseek.org <http://www.iseek.org/>
Hope it helps!
