Oksana Mikhaylovna Esmana, a teacher-psychologist of the State Educational Institution "Secondary School No. 3 in Soligorsk", spoke on the topic "Application of coaching technologies in vocational guidance work with students".
The main stages of the career guidance game:
Preparation stage (development of a game plan (scenario), preparation of handouts).
Game stage (introduction to the game (rules, regulations, instructions); game activity (group work on the task, group performance); analysis and generalization stage).
Exit from the game (reflexion, conclusions and generalizations).
At the end of the seminar, all the participants noticed that the game technologies allow:
to activate students and form interest to solve the problems of the professional self-determination;
to develop the ability of teenagers to build their professional plans independently and consciously;
to get acquainted with the modern professions;
to develop communicative abilities and personal qualities;
to present vocational guidance material in a visual form which contributes to its better understanding and memorization;
to change the stereotypes that participants have towards different professions.
