We are preparing for our Summer Enrollment program and I am exploring valuable activities for students who are not required to take any placement tests. In the past, we have used the SBI and a free online career assessment (which now has a fee associated with it) to help students learn more about themselves. We also gave students who finished testing early an opportunity to complete the free assessment. The two activities combined took anywhere from 20-40 minutes, depending on the student. Since the career inventory is no longer free, I am taking this opportunity to see if there might be something BETTER than what we've done in the past (to combine with the SBI or replace it). Our department, the Assessment and Learning Center provides resources on academic success as well as major/career exploration. As fewer students require placement tests, we will be providing this other option to more and more students. It may be something used with FYE courses or probation courses as well. Ideally, we would like to help students learn more about themselves in a way that would enhance their academic success. ANY suggestions would be appreciated. Expense is an issue (LASSI is too expensive), but suggestions for a great video or student-led paper-pencil/online activity are much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
