High School Career Development ProgramsErica Swallow
During my final quarter at the MIT Sloan School of Management, I conducted an independent study about social entrepreneurship in the education sector, primarily focused on current players and existing opportunities in the space. I collaborated with education non-profit Noble Impact to determine how the high school education system might be transformed by greater involvement from communities and businesses.
My research entailed three stages: Internet research, phone and in-person interviews with key players at non-profits and businesses, and creation of a final report, which you’ll find attached to this email.
My research was focused on four questions:
- How are high school students currently engaged in career development?
- Which businesses are most engaged in K-12 education? How and why?
- What scalable opportunities exist to solve the skills gap between the classroom and workforce?
- What should I do after MIT Sloan to have the greatest impact in education?
The final report covers my key findings for the first two questions – insights were pulled from interviews with recruiters, students, non-profit leaders, and corporate giving professionals. The report also covers potential opportunities that Noble Impact or other organizations could implement to improve career-oriented programming offered to high school students. Lastly, the report gives a very brief insight into where my head’s at for post-Sloan plans.
INSPIRATION FOR THIS PROJECT
I was inspired to conduct this project for two key reasons: Education has been a life-changer for me, and Noble Impact’s work inspired me to think harder about how I could contribute to improving education in America.
As a first-generation college (and graduate) student, I’ve observed and relished in the difference furthering my education has made in my life, as compared with the trajectories of my siblings, cousins, and elders. Education not only pulled me out of poverty, but it also opened my mind to the many ways in which I could l contribute to the world.
Last year, I was invited to judge Noble Impact’s Arkansas High School Startup Weekend, and I was amazed by what the students were capable of producing: Full product prototypes, pitch presentations, and compelling arguments for why their business ideas were important. At the time, I didn’t consider how I might contribute to their experience beyond my duty as a judge, but as my second year of Sloan began to wrap up, I reflected upon my two years in business school and realized that my time in Little Rock with those motivated, talented students was the most inspiring time of my MBA. After starting a dialogue with Noble Impact CEO Eric Wilson, I decided I couldn’t end my semester without a deep dive into the education world. And thus, this project was born.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Career Clusters Terminology
Career and Technical Education: Organized educational activities that offer a sequence of courses that provides
individuals with coherent and rigorous content aligned with challenging academic standards and relevant technical
knowledge and skills needed to prepare for further education and careers in current or emerging professions, provides
technical skill proficiency, an industry-recognized credential, a certificate, or an associate degree, may include
prerequisite courses (other than remedial courses) that meet other requirements; and include competency-based applied
learning that contributes to the academic knowledge, higher-order reasoning and problem-solving skills, work attitudes,
general employability skills, technical skills, occupation-specific skills, and knowledge of all aspects of an industry,
including entrepreneurship of an individual. [Section3(5)] Perkins Act of 2006: The Official Guide
Career Clusters: Kansas identifies 16 Career Clusters. These are occupations that are organized around common
knowledge and skills that have common characteristics and job duties. The 16 Career Clusters are: Agriculture, Food, and
Natural Resources; Arts, A/V Technology, and Communications; Information Technology; Architecture and
Construction; Manufacturing; Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics; Science, Technology, Engineering, and
Mathematics (STEM); Health Science; Government and Public Administration; Education and Training; Human Services;
Law, Public Safety, and Security; Business Management and Administration; Finance; Marketing; and Hospitality and
Tourism.
Career Fields: Occupations that are organized around broad, common knowledge and skills. The six Career Fields are:
Environment and Agricultural Systems; Arts, Communication, and Information; Industrial, Manufacturing, and
Engineering Systems; Health Science; Human Resources and Services; and Business, Marketing, and Management.
Career Pathways: Kansas identifies 79 Pathways. Pathways are organized around more specific knowledge and skills
and are based on a grouping of occupations. These are exactly what they sound like: a Pathway leading from education to
career. The Pathway identifies each step, skill, education requirement and aptitude needed to be successful within any
specific career. A Pathway is made up of a coherent, articulated sequence of rigorous academic & career related courses.
Foundation Knowledge & Skills: Academic and technical skills that are the foundation for any career a 21st Century
learner may pursue. The Foundation Knowledge & Skills are: Employability, Ethics, Systems, Teamwork, Career
Development, Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Information Technology Applications, Legal Responsibilities,
Communication, and Safety, Health & Environment.
Personal Plan of Study: A Personal Plan of Study is individualized for each student. It is a concentrated effort to
explore career opportunities to aid a student in making insightful and purposeful decisions about career goals. It is
designed to contain student assessments that reflect his/her abilities, personal interests, and both academic strengths and
weaknesses. It should: 1) state the students’ career goals and intended postsecondary training; 2) contain a comprehensive
6 year educational plan based on the Kansas Career Clusters Model and Programs of Study, grades 8-14; and 3) include
any other information that will assist the student in preparing a resume.
Program of Study: A program of study is a comprehensive educational plan that includes all required academic courses,
and electives that will enhance or complement a career interest area (Career Cluster). Also included are appropriate career
and technical education (CTE) courses, work-based learning options and transition plans for after high school, potentially
including two- and four-year institutions, apprenticeships, employer-based training, and lifelong learning.
5. Labor Market Information (LMI) Definitions
Pathways available for state approval at the secondary-level must meet the following criteria:
Lead to high demand and high skill careers with postsecondary connections and/or industry
credentials/certifications or
Lead to high demand and high wage careers with postsecondary connections and/or industry
credentials/certifications
High Demand: An occupation that:
Has a critical shortage of workers to fill the employment demands of industry, and
Requires formal training exceeding that which can be provided on the job.
High Skill: An occupation that requires all of the following:
Specialized technical training,
An advanced level of skill sets as defined by each industry and/or education (Examples: independent decision
making, critical thinking, problem solving),
A recognized validation of skill attainment or credential (Examples: certification, registration, licensure), and
Includes mandatory continuing education and/or training.
High Wage: An occupation that:
Has a median wage for the occupation that is at least 200% above federal poverty level for a specific area/region
or an entry wage of $13.75 or higher, and
