Abstract | A project was conducted to build motivation and increase language arts skills of disadvantaged students through involvement in a career exploration program. A class of 28 students reviewed career clusters and indicated their personal interest. Employed representatives from the community with backgrounds similar to the students' visited the classroom and discussed their roles, jobs, and responsibilities. Following the classroom visit, small groups of students visited the job sites of those who had visited the classroom. The students made notes and took pictures; these comments and photographs were then prepared as stories intended for compilation in booklet form for use by other students. Although the project was not completed in terms of developing the reading booklets and a subsequent evaluation, it was recommended that the process implemented for this type of direct experience be encouraged.
