Week+4

__**Chapter 3.**__ Read Chapter 3, "Find Your Balance: Zeroing in on Core Values," pp. 37-52.

Do the following exercises. 3.1 through 3.5 will be a written document to upload in Assignments. 3.6 and 3.8 will be two separate Discussion Board posts. These three pieces will be graded separately.

3.1 Values Grid (pp. 39-40): since it's not easy to type out the grid, do the whole exercise and just type out your answers to question 2 (p. 40) for your written assignment. (5 points)

3.2 Explore Your Values (pp. 42-44), all questions (including the top of p. 44). (10 points)
 * When doing the Job Descriptions part, you don't have to type out the whole description. Just rank order your top three by its number and describe what appeals to you about each one.
 * When you're looking up the values these statements/careers/values represent, the instructions refer you to look at page 51--it's actually page 52.

3.3 Meeting Your Needs (pp. 45-46), all 4 questions. (4 points)

3.4 Your Values: Some Hard Choices (p. 49): when typing out your rank ordering for each group, you can use a keyword or short phrase to represent each (instead of having to type out the full sentence)--just as long as it's understandable. (3 points)

3.5 Top Five (p. 50)--list your top five and an action step you've taken for each (or, no action taken yet). (5 points)

__In Discussion Board:__

3.6 Values Related to Careers (p. 50), all questions. Post this in the Discussion Board area and read others' posts. (5 points)

3.8 WWWebwise: (page 51) There was a slight change in the web address--the last part of the link is now .shtml instead of .html. You can click this hyperlink and it will open in a new window: @http://careerservices.rutgers.edu/OCAvaluesassessment.shtml Post your response in the Discussion Board and respond to others' posts.

37 total points (27 + 5 + 5), due Sunday, February 6, 2011, 11:59 p.m..
