About the cours

To start, make sure you have a notebook for College and Career Success. Each post/activity starts with a quickwrite (QW); you will complete your quickwrites in this notebook, and share them with your EF at your meetings. For each quickwrite, spend about 10 minutes writing down whatever comes to mind in response to the QW prompt. Try to write for the entire 10 minutes.

You can also use this notebook for any thoughts and reflections you want to jot down while completing the activities, and when we get to the college and career planning, you can keep your college list and other notes about college and career interests in your notebook.

If you are new to the course, start at the bottom and work your way up. New posts/activities will appear at the top.

How to Make Hard Choices

QW: Describe a time when you had to make a hard decision.

Choices are an integral part of our lives - there are small choices (e.g. what to eat for breakfast) and large choices (e.g. what career to choose, or where to go to college).  In her Ted talk, Ruth Chang explains what makes hard choices so hard, and what we can learn about ourselves as we make those choices.

Watch Ms. Chang's TED talk "How to Make Hard Choices", then answer the questions on this worksheet.
