Over 200 students fill the bus loop, waiting to pile onto yellow school buses. Eager students chat with their friends about what is in store for them later in the day. They are on their way to get once in a lifetime hands on learning experience from professionals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">On Nov. 28, students had the opportunity to attend the MiCareerQuest event at the Suburban Showplace in Novi. This being the first year this field trip was offered, many went in hopes of learning new skills and getting deeper knowledge on careers they could possibly pursue after high school.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cI was really excited to come here,\u201d junior Eyda Gu said. \u201cI wanted to see what career path I would want to take, and this is a great way to test the waters. It\u2019s a good opportunity to see smaller jobs instead of just medicine, science and engineering.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">All Novi students were invited to go, and 230 students chose to attend. The Suburban Showplace was transformed into a learning haven, showcasing a multitude of different career paths with professionals willing to answer questions, do tutorials, and essentially teach students about that career. Students got to experience career paths to discover a possible good fit for them to go into later in life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Representatives from advanced manufacturing, construction, health sciences and information technology were all there. Students were given a 30 minute span of time in each quadrant to go learn from and speak with different career specialists. They could ask questions and do career based hands-on activities one on one with volunteers trained in that field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Some students learned that what they thought they were interested in, they aren\u2019t. And vice versa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">\u201cWhen I first came here, I was expecting a more hands on experience, but you had to go to every place by yourself. I tried the music stuff out, but most of it\u2019s computerized. I initially became interested in coding jobs and computer engineering,\u201d senior Akrm Al-Hakimi said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">But students still had fun seeing and experiencing the field trip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">\u201cIt was cool to see all the professionals take time out of their day to show you what it is that they do in detail. I was most excited to see the paramedics and medical stuff,\u201d senior Jennifer Bucan said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Morgan Taulbee &amp; Dionne Sutton Reflections Novi HS 1st Place Division 1, Yearbook Verbal Academic Writing JUDGING CRITERIA Clear, relevant, engaging angle Solid lead that draws reader into story Meaningful student quotes that enrich story and reflect effective interviewing Evidence of adequate research Story goes beyond simply reviewing what happens in classroom Adheres to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":4670,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[104,3,11],"tags":[175,20],"class_list":["post-4669","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","category-academicwriting","category-yb","category-ybverbal","tag-2019-20","tag-division1","post_format-post-format-image","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/045987-19_034-035_9-C-D.png?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1","featured_image_src_square":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/045987-19_034-035_9-C-D.png?resize=600%2C600&ssl=1","author_info":{"display_name":"Joel Beeker","author_link":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/?author=9"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/045987-19_034-035_9-C-D.png?fit=1858%2C1364&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6K0n6-1dj","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4669","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4669"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4669\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4669"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acutabove.mipamsu.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
