Why:
Lack of Career Awareness: The curriculum often prioritizes academics over career exploration, leaving students unaware of the vast array of professional opportunities available today.
Limited Practical Exposure: Theoretical education dominates, with minimal focus on practical experiences like internships or project-based learning, which are crucial for understanding real-world work environments and personal fit.
Overemphasis on Standardized Testing: Students are evaluated predominantly on academic scores or psychometrics alone disregarding other aspects such as inclination, natural talent and acquired skills.
Mismatch with Current Industry Needs: The disconnect between academic training and the skills demanded by modern industries further complicates career planning, leaving students unsure of their paths.
How:
A student’s career inclination can be identified through experiential, observational, and conversational methods that tap into their natural preferences, skills, and interests.
Engaging students in diverse extracurricular activities such as task groups, sports, arts, or hands-on practice helps reveal their areas of enthusiasm and strengths. Project-based learning and trials allow students to explore real-world work, enabling them to assess their comfort and aptitude in various fields.
Teachers and guardians play a critical role by sharing about the student’s hobbies, or problem-solving approaches, noting tendencies toward thinking, creativity or expertise.
One-on-one discussions and peer observations can further uncover passions and values. Encouraging the student to articulate their dreams and motivations provides insights into their long-term aspirations.
