Question 6

To enhance the effectiveness of career-related programs, counselors should:
A)​Follow counseling scripts from other schools
B)​Adhere to one counseling approach only
C)​Use only local data to build interventions
D)​Have knowledge of local curriculum and teaching methods

Accepted Answer

Having knowledge of the local curriculum and teaching methods in schools can help career counselors develop more effective career-related programs that fit within and complement the existing educational framework. This knowledge can also help them tailor their interventions to the specific needs and goals of students in that particular school or district. Following counseling scripts from other schools may not be effective as there are differences in school cultures and populations. Adhering to only one counseling approach may limit a counselor's ability to meet the diverse needs of students. Using only local data may not provide a comprehensive view of students' career interests and goals.

Question 7

A sample exercise whereby students identify one type of skill necessary for good schoolwork and then identify a job that requires a specific school subject is an example illustrating what process?​
A)​The stage prior to thinking logically or abstractly
B)​Cultivating "schemes" through senses and motor activities
C)​Making consistent generalizations
D)​Encouraging and directing concrete experiences to promote increasingly abstract conceptual operations

Accepted Answer

This exercise is an example of encouraging and directing concrete experiences to promote increasingly abstract conceptual operations, which is consistent with the theory of Jean Piaget's cognitive development. students are asked to identify a skill necessary for good schoolwork (i.e., an abstract concept) and then apply it to a specific job that requires a specific school subject (i.e., a concrete experience). This exercise encourages students to move from concrete experiences to abstract reasoning, which is a characteristic of Piaget's stage of formal operations.
