GENERAL INTRODUCTION

Career Motivation K-6 is the first phase of the Career Development Program. The ultimategoal of the total Career Development Program K-10 is the realization and utilization of humanpotential for general improvement and upgrading of society. The goals of the Career MotivatioProgram are:

To motivate studenti to want to become a part of theWorld of Work.

To develop in students an awareness of the wide rangeof job opportunities, an appreciation of all work andthe recognition that all work is honorable.

Through Awareness, Appreciation, and Motivation the elementary school child will under-stand that work is &meaningful activity, that he engages in at home and school. Later thosetasks for which he has assumed responsibility become jobs and occupations which are necessaryfor maintaining and improving his society and which are the most probable means for therealization of his own human capacity.

As the child progresses through elementary school and his world expands and beccmes morecomplex, the Career Motivation Program will have special meaning for the child in hisdevelopment as a person.

The K-6 Career Motivation Program is based on the belief that every healthy individual isat work at something, especially the elementary school child. By becoming aware of his re-sponsibilities at home and at school and by appreciating the personal meaning that comes frommeeting these responsibilities, the child develops Motivation for work in the elementary schoolThrough Career Orientation and Career Exploration Programs their respect for work translatesinto career development.

The affective stages of growth require that the child's feelings, perceptions, and beliefsare dealt with in the areas of self-awareness, self-acceptance, self-affirmation of interests,aptitudes, achievements, values, and attituden.
