Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Strategies that involve self-reflection (such as writing a personal description and identifying goals) and exploration of potential careers through observation (such as visiting a place in the community) are both effective ways of helping students explore their educational and occupational options. Therefore, a combination of both strategies (A and B) is the best choice for educational and occupational exploration. The lifeline strategy (C) can also be useful, but it may be more geared towards personal development than career exploration.
