My Future?
...building tomorrow
 
WELCOME
 

You are about to embark on a radical journey to the very core of your existence...etc. You will  develop goals for your future and then decide what you will need to do in order to achieve those goals.

Your Mission

On a recent trip to the fair you join your friends as they step out of a maze.  Each of your friends begins describing his or her trip through the maze to you at the same time.  You have a hard time making sense out what they are saying. They all seem to be describing something very different.   Each of them is excited though and recommends you try out the maze for yourself.  They boast of fun and adventure, telling you that you will have an exciting time.  Since your friends all have a very different idea of what an exciting time is, you are very confused.  The name of the maze looks very dull, "My Future?".  "What fun could this possibly be?" you think as you look at the entrance portal.  Besides, you just spent your last bit of money on a corn dog.   Then you notice the ticket taker put up a sign and walk away.  You move closer to read the sign.   It simply says, "Out to lunch enter at your own risk".  "This has got to be better than just standing here," you think to yourself as you walk toward the entrance of the maze.  As you move through the portal you become mesmerized by what you see

As you gaze into the swirling pattern a picture forms before your eyes. You look at a newspaper in the picture, and it has a date 10 years in the future.  You can see yourself in the picture.  You just left work for the day and travel home to spend the evening with you family.  What does the future hold?  What do you see?

The Maze

Along your journey through the maze, you will be asked to complete activities that will help you move to the next step.  Once you have completed all the steps you will be ready to share your adventure with others.  Each step will guide you through certain activities. You will be given web-based tools, or other resources to help you complete each step.  Don't skip any steps! As you finish each step turn the finished activity in to your teacher.  When you finish all the activities, you will be ready to follow your plan.  The more effort you put into this, the better the end result.  The end result is your future!   Good Luck!  Make it a great future!
