ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:
Part I: Describe your own career development from childhood through early adolescence using Super’s, Gottfredson’s, and other relevant theories. When did you know what you wanted to pursue? Who influenced you? What major turning points can you remember? Make sure you address role salience, work salience, and vocational self concept.

Part II: This week’s readings have a developmental theme including the ways in which Super applies his theory to adult development and choices, theories of transition, and – to use Gottfredson’s concepts – circumscription and compromise. In what way do people’s values, social expectations. stereotypes, and discrimination contribute to people’s career choices and development?
