In Episode 108 of the podcast, we dive into the topic of helping learners plan their path through college. College can be a daunting and overwhelming experience for many students, especially if they are unsure of what they want to study or what career path they want to pursue. As educators, it is important for us to provide guidance and support to help students navigate their way through the college experience.

One key aspect of helping learners plan their path through college is assisting them in choosing a major that aligns with their interests, skills, and career goals. Many students struggle with selecting a major, and it is important for educators to provide resources and support to help students explore their options and make an informed decision.

In addition to choosing a major, students also need guidance in creating a course plan that will help them stay on track to graduate on time. This involves mapping out which classes to take each semester, as well as ensuring that they fulfill any prerequisite requirements for their major.

Another important aspect of planning their path through college is providing students with opportunities for career exploration and development. This could involve internships, networking events, or workshops focused on resume building and interview skills. By exposing students to different career options and helping them develop the skills they need to succeed in the workforce, educators can help students feel more confident and prepared for life after college.

It is also important for educators to support students in setting and achieving their academic and personal goals. By establishing clear goals and creating a plan to achieve them, students can stay motivated and focused throughout their college experience.

Overall, Episode 108 highlights the importance of helping learners plan their path through college. By providing guidance, support, and resources, educators can help students navigate the challenges of college and set themselves up for success in their academic and professional lives.
