This is how middle school students find their career paths in the AI era.
Description
Book Introduction
“How will young people find their career path in the AI era?”
Career classes based on the new curriculum starting in 2025!
“We are looking for general specialists who possess broad and deep expertise in various fields, rather than experts who are specialized in only one field.
In response to these changing times, the education authorities have revised the "2022 Revised Curriculum," which will be fully implemented starting this year.
In the age of AI (artificial intelligence), what is most important to middle school students?
In response to this question, most people unanimously answer 'studying a department'.
I don't need to explain the reason separately, everyone knows it.
It is for ‘advancement’ to higher education such as high school and university.
Furthermore, I think I can have a better job and career in the future.
But now there is a subject that is just as important.
It is ‘career’ education.
Career education is literally a subject that teaches middle school students about career paths and jobs.
However, it is not included in the subjects tested for admission to higher education.
In reality, there is a sad and amusing spectacle of students misunderstanding career classes as time for academy homework due to the perception that they are not major subjects.
Can career classes be treated this way?
The author of this book, Kim Won-bae, a career guidance counselor, emphasizes, "That's not true!" by placing the modifier "absolutely" in single quotation marks. He argues that the career and job environment in the AI era is so different from what we've seen before that it requires even more attention than academic study.
Until now, you could live your entire life with just one job.
But in the AI era, the concepts of lifetime employment and full employment are being shattered.
This is because the economically active life expectancy is also increasing due to the aging population.
Therefore, we require a 'general specialist' who has broad and deep expertise in various fields, rather than an expert who is specialized in only one field.
In response to these changing times, the education authorities have revised the '2022 Revised Curriculum', which will be fully implemented starting this year.
In this respect, the author, a current career guidance teacher, wrote this book with the belief that young people need a career guidebook based on the revised curriculum.

Into the book
There's no need to worry or be sad if your friend finds his or her career goal but you haven't.
You can find it by exploring slowly.
Even if you decide now, it may change as you live.
You may change your mind in your 20s, and you may want to try something different in your 30s.
What's important is my attitude now, thinking about how I can do my best in the work given to me, and trying to find something.
--- p.21
Today we live in the digital age.
Now that the Internet and smartphones have become a part of our lives, the ability to find and utilize necessary knowledge without getting lost in the flood of information, that is, the ability to process knowledge information, is very important.
Especially for middle school students, this skill is an important tool for preparing for the future.

Harvard University's Teresa M.
Amabile (Teresa M.
Professor Amabile lists three elements that foster creative thinking and attitudes: creative thinking ability, knowledge and experience, and intrinsic motivation.
This means that when you perform a task, if you have knowledge and experience and think creatively while being fully internally motivated, there is a greater chance that creative results will be produced.
--- p.39
Artificial intelligence will significantly change the world of work, but it will also provide us with many opportunities.
Humans will be able to focus on more creative and important tasks in their professional activities.
In other words, robots can focus on difficult or repetitive tasks, while humans can spend more time efficiently solving the tasks at hand by focusing on new ideas.
The ability to collaborate with artificial intelligence will be crucial in the future work environment.
--- p.117
The future is unpredictable, but we can create it through the present.
It is important to study hard now, gain diverse experiences, and move forward toward your dreams.
Don't be afraid of failure, and don't be afraid of challenges.
Failure is just part of the road to success.
Learning and growing from failure leads to greater success.
--- p.157
Reading skills and learning skills are closely linked.
Reading ability refers to the ability to read and understand sentences in a book, and learning ability is the ability to acquire and understand such knowledge.
These two abilities are interconnected and positively influence each other.
People with strong reading skills can acquire and organize information more effectively during the learning process.
It also helps you read and interpret various learning materials, such as textbooks and reference materials.
--- p.205
Exploring different topics, trying new activities, and developing new passions are all important things in life.
As you live, the things you want to do may change, and your heart may shift in a completely different direction.
You shouldn't be afraid every time that happens.
Adults are still finding their own way.
You can find it by exploring slowly.

Publisher's Review
“A book that helps teenagers pursuing their dreams to carve out their own paths!
“You can diagnose your career characteristics and direction through various activity sheets.”
Starting in 2025, the career textbook "Career and Occupation" will be subject to the revised "2022 Revised Curriculum," resulting in significant changes to the textbook and teaching methods.
In keeping with the changing times, educational activities have been organized to foster self-directed learning and future capabilities linked to life.
In particular, the revised textbook presents self-management skills, aesthetic sensibility skills, knowledge and information processing skills, cooperative communication skills, creative thinking skills, and community skills as core competencies that young people should possess.
The direction of education is also designed to address the uncertainties of future society, fostering the ability to take charge of one's own learning and life, and fostering activities that foster language, mathematical skills, and basic digital and artificial intelligence knowledge, as well as fostering cooperation and a sense of community.
However, the reality is that middle school students' concerns about their future career paths are not as urgent as expected.
Some students say they will advance to high school and find their career path.
It is because I think that studying in my department comes first.
However, author Kim Won-bae thinks differently.
He says that it is most important to regularly think about and explore your career path.
Ask them to think about what they liked as a child, what activities they enjoy now, and what talents or qualities others praise them for.
It is said that trying different activities is also a good way to discover hobbies and interests.
It is said that ideas can also be obtained through family, friends, school classes, or creative activities.
If you feel overwhelmed by the prospect of pursuing a big dream, I encourage you to start with small goals.
In that respect, this book is a workbook tailored to help middle school students find their career path.
This book was written by Wonbae Kim, a career guidance counselor who participated in writing the "Career and Occupation" textbook for the "2022 Revised Curriculum." It is a collection of methods for young people to understand the future direction of career education and curriculum and to easily participate in activities.
So, while this book is written by a career guidance teacher to help students carve out their own paths in life, it is also structured to enable them to explore their career paths on their own initiative.
This book consists of six chapters.
Chapter 1, "Preparing for the Future," introduces the essential skills students must acquire during their school years, including self-directed career exploration, the ability to utilize knowledge and information, the ability to think creatively, emotional capacity in the high-touch era, and a life in a globalized community.
Chapter 2, 'Career Path and My Future', talks about how to find your own path in the changing future society.
It is structured around activities that help you understand the common career characteristics of professionals and your own career characteristics, so you can figure out what your tendencies are.
Chapter 3, “Changes in Future Society and Jobs,” introduces the new world of future jobs and strategies for preparing for them.
It contains strategies for quickly responding to the constantly changing world of work.
Chapter 4, “What You Like and Are Good at,” explores how to discover what you like and are good at, and discusses how it’s okay to find your dreams a little later in life.
Chapter 5, 'Career, Learning, and Reading', explains why we study, which is the first thing we need to do to find our career goals.
It teaches us the importance of studying for our future careers, not just studying because our parents told us to, but studying on our own.
Chapter 6, ‘Planning and Implementing a Career Path’, provides specific instructions on how to implement a planned career path.
It explains in detail how to write a self-introduction for advancement to higher education or employment, and the type of talent companies are looking for in the ChatGPT era.
This book is a compass for teenagers seeking their future dreams and a lifelong companion.
I'm not insisting that you just study.
I suggest that you spend at least an hour a day thinking about your future while hanging out with friends and traveling.
The author believes in the potential of young people and claims that this book will serve as a guide to motivate them to realize their potential and help them grow into the pillars of society.
