"If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl, but by all means, keep moving." - Martin Luther King Jr.
Goal: In this module, students will think about their future career goals and identify the actionable steps necessary to achieve them.
Objective: By the end of this week students will have identified a job or career they are interested in (high level goal), found a summer experience that would help them to work towards that job/career (mid level goal), identified the qualifications of the experience by looking at the job posting, and then identified low level goals that would help them gain those qualifications.
