The purpose of this unit is to provide students with an opportunity to engage in personal reflection, develop an enhanced awareness of “self” and understand the connection between “self ” and “others”.
In order to make good decisions, one needs information about oneself, the possible choices in each life area, and the risks and benefits of each choice. At the same time, effective management of life also requires that one learns how to deal effectively with change. In the Personal Management unit, students will engage in discussion and exploration related to their interests, attitudes, values and self-esteem. They will increase their understanding of skills that enhance interaction with others and help them cope effectively with change.
