Part 1: Me in 15 years
Close your eyes. Breathe. Now imagine - you're in a time machine and you're headed 15 years into the future. The year is 2029. You are 29 years old. Look around at your life, and describe what you see.
On an 8x17 piece of paper (provided) brainstorm what your life ideally looks like in 15 years. Full colour, images, and effort required. For this section of your project, anything and everything is possible. There are 6 facets of life that you need to consider:

Part 2: Personality and Career Profiles
Take the personality quiz and read through the results. Using a Venn Diagram (discussed in class) explore the similarities and/or differences you see in connection to PART 1 and the results. Then write a comprehensive summary and reflection (min. 2 paragraphs).
- After taking the test, you'll come to a "results" page - you'll be given a four letter "personality code". Just below the results, there is a button that says "Learn more about your type" - click it.
- Read about your personality - do you agree with it? Why/Why not?
- Below your personality, you'll see three boxes - you only have to read, summarize and reflect on the BOLDED ones. If you want to read the others, you can.
XXXX Personality
Type Description Strengths and Weaknesses XXXX In-Depth Profile |
Relationships
Romantic Relationships Friendships Parenthood |
XXXX Professional Life
Career Paths Workplace Habits XXXX Career Stories |
What I will be collecting:
- Venn Diagram
- Summary and Reflection of Personality Type
Part 3: Research, Professionals and Presentation
Research, Professionals, and Presentation - choose three career possibilities that interest you most - even if it's not listed in the results of your personality test.
- Research these careers in depth - pay, benefits, education, "downsides" etc. Using a P.M.I. chart, outline what you find positive, negative, and interesting about each career.
- Choose one of your careers and actually contact a professional* in the field of work and talk to them about the realities of their job and career choice. The final part is the presentation and reflection - your choice; you may put everything into an essay, a PowerPoint, a Padlet, etc.
