What is WBL

Work Based Learning
       Work based learning is a class that I, Logan Tucker, am in. I believe this class is about the fundamentals of work ethic and also is meant to help the student see if their ideal work place is in fact the ideal work place.
I doubt there will be a lot of shadowing from the teacher, and by that I mean I believe the teacher will set the students in the right direction, but he will not being holding our hands through the process. I say this not because I believe the teacher is lazy, but because this class is based around the idea of setting us up for our future career.
          The idea of Work Base Learning is to show students that the work place they have been dreaming of ever since they can remember might not be all that it cracked out to be, simply stated I think this class will help show people that there focus elective is or isn’t what they want to do for the majority of their adult life.

          Truth be told, this class is like an independent study of the students’ self. Do you like this or are second guessing the career of your choosing which isn’t a bad thing; this class gives the students an opportunity to realize that being an astronaut isn’t about going to space and walking around the moon, it is about the science of astrology. This class is about the road that all students will have to take at the end of their high school career. Work Based Learning, makes students reflect on the question that everyone has been asking since they were infants, “What do you want to be when you grow-up?” This class is here to help those students ask that question to themselves, and see if they like what they’ve chosen.
