Classroom Lesson on Career Key & Myers-Briggs

We met with students in English 1 this semester to set up CFNC accounts. College Foundation of North Carolina website assists students with planning, applying, and paying for college (www.cfnc.org). Then, students completed the Career Key assessment to learn more about their personality and jobs that align with their personality. Next, students took the Myers-Briggs assessment to see those results as well (www.16personalities.com). We discussed if they felt the results were accurate.
