LEARNING MODULE IN CAREER GUIDANCE


QUARTER 3 MODULE 2
What I Need to Know
Module 2 of Grade 11 Career Guidance Manual entitled “Releasing the Power Within” is practically about
unleashing the knowledge and skills of every learner. They will focus on their innate talents, interests, skills, and abilities to
help them identify their potential through the different activities and opportunities of learning capsulized in this module.
They will be encouraged to explore possibilities of knowing their skills and abilities and manifest these in related activities as
applied in the workplace and in given situations.
This module includes an animated video presentation about the different professions that will help guide the learners in
finding the career that fits their knowledge and skills. As guidance counselor/teacher/career advocate, you will be assigned to
facilitate discussion about the video presentation.
It is recommended that as learners go through this module, the parents and significant others give their support and words
of encouragement so that the learners will be able to realize their goal of becoming a career professional.
LESSON 2: Releasing the Power Within
Objectives:
At the end of this module, you are expected to:
1. Identify the knowledge and skills needed in the different professions and life choices;
2. Assess the knowledge and skills needed in the preferred profession; and
3. Value the importance of knowledge and skills required in the profession.

What I know
DISCOVERING CAREERS
Show a video presentation about the different professions/jobs. Remind students that their knowledge about a certain
profession is necessary to be able to perform the job.
Guide Questions
1. What does the video clip tell about?
2. What professions/jobs were shown in the video?
3. What does it require for an individual to perform the tasks for each profession or job? (Possible answers: interest,
motivation, skill, determination, hard work)

Alternative Activity (If ICT equipment is not available)


The teacher will ask a volunteer to show his/her talent or skill in front of the class. Ask the learners to describe the
profession and requirements of an individual to perform the tasks required of the profession.

What is it
Keep in Mind
Our knowledge about self and of our skills and ways of doing things are important elements in choosing a career. When we
know our interests and the skills we possess, we are better able to identify the kind of profession we want to pursue.
Personal skills are things we are good at―our strengths, abilities, and attributes. Knowledge refers to learning concepts,
principles, and information regarding a particular subject(s) by a person through books, media, encyclopedias, academic
institutions, and other sources (Boulet, 2011).
(http://www.differencebetween.net/language/difference-between-knowledgeand-skill/)

Skill refers to the ability of using that information and applying it in a context. In other words, knowledge refers to theory
and skill refers to successfully applying that theory in practice and getting expected results.
For instance, a salesperson armed with an MBA degree may have learned all the principles of marketing and selling in his
business school. Going forward, in his work he would know more about his company in the arena of its product line, target
market, competitors, etc. All of the above is knowledge. When the individual transfers this knowledge to create a successful sales
strategy and pitch and work to achieve those sales targets, is the salesperson’s skill.

Knowledge is the thing we know while skill is the ability to apply what we know. Each of us possesses different
skills. Each of us varies in the strengths and weaknesses that we possess. These make us unique. Because we are unique, we differ
in the way we do things. Since no two individuals are the same, we need to complement each other. In like manner, different
professions require different skill sets and abilities. Skills are divided according to the following categories (Santa Maria, 2006):

 People Skills―Work with, help, entertain, service, or influence the actions or thinking of people.
 Data Skills―Handle details, facts, numbers, records or files in a quick and accurate way.
 Thing Skills―Operate, maintain, or build machinery or regulate or process equipment; understand and work with
physical, chemical, or biological functions
 Idea Skills―Solve abstract problems and express thoughts or feelings in a creative or ingenious way.

Skills can also be categorized as employability skills or skills you need for a job.
(http://www.skillsyouneed.com/general/employability-skills.html). These are:

 Interpersonal Skills―These are important when seeking employment and may be the single most important factor for
many recruiters.
 Communication Skills―Employers look for people who communicate well both verbally and in writing.
 Critical Thinking Skills―The ability to solve problems and make decisions can be a huge asset to your employer and
these are therefore desirable skills to develop.
 Personal Development―This is all about having the right attitude towards work and the organization you work for.
Employers look for people who are keen to develop and learn.
 Presentation Skills―Presenting information clearly and effectively is a key skill in the workplace and presentation skills
are required in almost every modern employment area.
 Leadership Skills―Leadership is the ability to influence others toward the achievement of a goal.
 Numeracy or Number Skills―Numeracy involves an understanding of numerical data, statistics, and graphs, and is also
part of making decisions and reasoning.
 Information Technology Skills―Most people need some information technology (IT) skills to find work today.
Acquiring basic IT skills and being familiar with using a computer may open up a wide range of employment
opportunities and increase your marketability in the workplace.
