Check Out an Activity ...

Prioritize interests

In this activity you will explore what interests you in the school setting. It will help you sort through the types of activities you like to do and find the ways in which you work best. Ultimately, it will ask you to analyze projects you have done in the past to see what interested you most about it. This type of reflection and thinking may help you decide which types of projects and careers will interest you in the future.
