Career Exploration

Career exploration is vital to each and every student as it provides them with opportunities and pathways for their future. Career exploration is the reflection and culmination of each student’s skills, experiences, and achievements throughout their academic careers. ChatterHigh’s gamified Daily Quiz format gives students a chance to examine their areas of interest while they satisfy their requirements for career education and career development curricula.

Moreover, ChatterHigh guides students to relevant university, college, career, and workforce resources that help them develop lifelong learning that is essential for making career-life decisions. The research-proven ‘seek-and-find’ format teaches students how to navigate and recognize important resources, so they can continue their career exploration beyond the classroom. The variety of content and career awareness students gain helps them determine the skills, attitudes, and behaviors necessary for each path into the workforce.

Student Interest Reports

ChatterHigh recognizes that each student has unique interests and passions, which is why the platform provides students with interest reports. ChatterHigh consolidates and classifies each student’s findings, so you don’t have to! Students start unlocking their reports after answering 100 Daily Quiz questions or completing 10 Daily Quizzes. Once students have completed 300 questions, they have access to a downloadable PDF that reflects their gained awareness, compares their choices, and matches their choice of institution with their choice of programs, sports, or clubs. The knowledge students gain can then act as a career roadmap, where students gain actionable steps toward their futures.

Benefits for Teachers
