Wednesday, February 5th four classes of 12th grade students participated in the “iDream” U of I Extension career exploration lesson entitled “Show Case It!” Jessie Blackburn, Director for Lincoln Land Community College of Litchfield, delivered an impassioned lesson that reinforced the importance of each student having goals & dreams.
She also related having dreams and goals to her own life story in which she pointed out that her individual goals needed to be both flexible and easily adaptable. The lesson concluded with a discussion around creating a vision board to assist students with staying focused upon their dreams & goals.
The “iDream iCreate” curriculum remains a part of the Litchfield School District’s intentional plan of assisting each of its students with career path exploration & individualized career planning.
