Discover Guide Starter Kit

The Discover Guide provides teachers an interactive resource to use with middle school students to explore their interests, passions, abilities, and influences. From there, students will learn about careers that fit with their discoveries—and what postsecondary path will get them there. Additionally, the Guide helps students develop an Education and Career Action Plan (ECAP) by the time they reach 8th grade.

We designed the guide to offer a lot of flexibility on instruction—you can assign activities for homework or incorporate them into classroom activities. Soon, we’ll also provide a Facilitator Guide, which provides lesson plans and additional resources.

What’s next? Simply, watch the video below to get a glimpse of what to expect. Then, review and complete the starter kit documents below, and you’ll be ready to go. If you have any questions, please contact the Middle Grade Services Manager at GearUp.MiddleSchool@nau.edu.
