New Thinking for Connexions and Citizenship

This material sets out recent thinking on career development in terms which can inform the future of both Connexions and education for citizenship. It is a technical guide to this thinking containing:

■ abstracts of significant publications;
■ summaries of useful "deep background" thinking;
■ references to where information and ideas can be found;
■ ways of linking thinking to practice;
■ summary charts in the form of OHP displays.

It is intended for thoughtful practitioners in careers work - including action researchers, trainees, careers-work programme managers, trainers and consultants.
All of the material is strong on content: ideas, the relationships between them and links to practice.
Each of the ten sections is in two parts: the first describes the thinking; the second, on the following page, is a summary of the key ideas in "handout" form. These handout pages are copy-waived for your purposes.
