Elementary Intervention
*Today's young people are living in an
exciting time, with an increasingly diverse
society, new technologies and expanding
opportunities. To help ensure that they are
prepared to become the next generation of
parents, workers, leaders and citizens,
every student needs support, guidance and
opportunities during childhood, a time of
rapid growth and change. Children face
unique and diverse challenges, both
personally and developmentally, that have
an impact on academic achievement.
*Ginzberg
*traced the process of occupational choice through stages
based on the characteristics of choice or the presumed
determinants of choice. According to their point of view,
the individual tends to make his choices with emphasis upon
different factors at different age levels. This approach is
developmental and is described by them as follows: “Our
basic assumption was that an individual never reaches the
ultimate decision at a single moment in time, but through
a series of decisions over a period of many years; the
cumulative impact is the determining factor.”
*Gordon
*asserted that concern for social justice
is a necessary condition for education.
Equity, social justice, and the
development of intrinsic motivation are
key concepts in the promotion of social
action initiatives aimed at improving
academic achievement and expanding
future career options for all students.
