What's Ahead
Transitioning
from Adult Education to a Career
This book is for the intermediate to advanced ELL or Adult Education
student who is considering pursuing a career after leaving an English
language or GED program. It explores six careers where job growth is
expected in the 21st century.
The careers investigated:
* Health
* Computer Technology
* Skilled Trades
* Hospitality and Food Service
* Your Own Business
* Day Care and Education
The eight units of the text follow people (Mitali from India, Hana from
Egypt, Gamba from Cameroon, Luz from Nicaragua , Tadesse from Ethiopia,
and Ahn Dung from Vietnam) as they work toward a successful career in
the United States.
In addition to providing readings about the careers, the text asks
the students to engage in discussions and tasks that will help them
clarify their own skills, needs, and interests. The vocabulary (160
words) associated with each field is also studied.
A What's Ahead? Teacher's Supplement provides photocopyable supplementary
material for students and teacher references to make planning the transition
course easier and more effective.
It includes:
