, Introduction
To the Instructor:
This manual accompanies Career Information, Career Counseling and Career Development: Toward a Global
Perspective is intended to provide both new and experienced professors with material that can be used either to
develop a new course approach or to modify an existing course related to the topic. In most counselor education or
counseling psychology programs the "career" area is introduced in the first year, often in the first semester.
Consequently, the instructor usually can assume that the students' psychological background is limited to whatever
basic courses were included in their undergraduate program. This manual is built on the assumptions that students
have some familiarity with at least introductory concepts of human development, general and educational
psychology, and general sociology, as encountered in undergraduate courses in these subjects.
Each chapter in this manual follows the same format. Each of the sections in the manual is intended to assist
the instructor in focusing student attention on the rationale and content of the chapter, in broadening and enriching
the learning process, and assisting in assessment of the learning process.
The six sections are the following:
Learning Objectives -- These statements attempt to specify the knowledge and/or skill the student should be
able to demonstrate with mastery of the chapter’s content.
Key Terms/Concepts -- These terms, phrases, or titles are included in the chapter, and an understanding of
them is necessary for full command of the content.
Suggested Exercises/Activities -- Practical application of ideas, materials, or techniques enhances the learning
process and often turns vague concepts into realistic and useful tools.
Class Discussion Questions -- These items are intended for use in those classes where group discussion can be
used to focus on broadening and deepening student grasp of the material.
Examination Questions -- This section includes suggested true-false, multiple choice, short essay, and long
essay questions that can be used in whatever assessment approach the instructor prefers.
Suggested Additional Assignments -- Instructors who expect students to read beyond the textbook will find
these items useful in directing students toward references that relate to the chapter content. Most items included are
drawn from the references listed for each chapter.
