Discovering Your Path: Unlocking Your Potential with the Holland Code
Nov 07, 2024
Thousands of individuals have discovered their full potential and found fulfilling careers by completing the Holland Code assessment, a career judgment tool developed by psychologist John L. Holland. This assessment categorizes personalities and interests into six distinct types, helping to match careers that align with an individual’s passions. However, the test was not built upon clinical experiments, so it is better seen as a self-discovery tool rather than a scientific diagnosis. In other words, this tool is useful for students to explore their interests, but it should not be the sole basis for making major career or life decisions. Therefore, students should make good use of critical thinking and avoid blindly following the results.     The Six Types of the Holland Code   Realistic: Prefers hands-on work with tangible objects, solving practical problems, and focusing on specific mechanical tasks rather than social or interpersonal activities. Investigative: Enjoys researching and solving mathematical or scientific problems, excelling in these areas while valuing scientific accuracy and intellectual pursuits over leadership or persuasion. Artistic: Engages in creative activities such as art, drama, and music, excelling in these fields and valuing originality and self-expression over structured or repetitive tasks. Social: Prefers helping others through activities like teaching and counseling, excelling in these areas while valuing support and addressing social issues over using machines or tools. Enterprising: Enjoys leading, persuading, and selling ideas or products, excelling in these roles, and valuing success in leadership, politics, or business over analytical or observational tasks. Conventional: Prefers handling data, records, or machinery in a systematic and orderly manner, excelling in these areas and valuing business success while seeing themselves as organized and skilled at following structured plans. Insights for Students 1. Academic Pathways Understanding these types can provide invaluable insights for students navigating their educational and career paths. Using the Holland Code as inspiration, students can better explore college majors that align with their interests. Here are some suggestions to get you started: Realistic: Consider majors in Engineering, Environmental Science, or Sports. Investigative: Explore fields like Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Data Science, or Computer Science. Artistic: Pursue studies in Fine Arts, Design, Architecture, Language Arts, or Performing Arts. Social: Look into Education, Psychology, Public Health, Social Work, or Sports. Enterprising: Think about Political Science, Business, Marketing, or Entrepreneurship. Conventional: Focus on Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or Computer Science. 2. Interpretation After completing the RIASEC test, you will receive a three-letter code (e.g., RIA). Each letter represents one of your strongest interest types, and the order of the letters reflects your preferences for those types of career. The first letter in your code represents your strongest career interest, the second letter represents a secondary interest, and the third letter indicates your relatively weaker interest.   However, this doesn't mean you must strictly follow this order. For example, if your Holland Code is RIA, you can also consider careers in the combinations RAI, IRA, IAR, ARI, and AIR. Statistically, there are six possible combinations for three letters, and this article will focus on introducing and categorizing only the non-repetitive three-letter codes. You are encouraged to explore various permutations and combinations of your interests.   Additionally, if the letter that ranks fourth in your results has a score close to the third-highest letter, that category can also be considered. Take the below result for example, the theme code is ARI, while I is only slightly higher than S and E. Hence, you might also want to explore the career options associated with the ARS or ARE combination code.   3.

發現道路:透過霍蘭德職業興趣解鎖潛能
Nov 04, 2024
Holland Code 霍蘭德職業類型測驗是一個職業判斷工具,幫助人們發掘自己的興趣和性格,以找到了令人滿意的職業。這一評估由心理學家約翰·L·霍蘭德(John L. Holland)開發,將個性和興趣分類為六種類型,幫助匹配與個人熱情相符的職業。 然而,該測驗並不是建立在嚴格的臨床驗證上,因此它更適合被視為一種自我發現工具,而非完全精確的科學診斷。換句話說,這個工具對於探索中的學生而言是一種有用的參考,卻不應該當作唯一依據來做出重大職業或生活決策,因此請學生善用批判性思考,避免盲目追從。 霍蘭德職業類型的六種 現實型(Realistic):喜歡動手工作,與具體物體打交道,解決實際問題,專注於特定的機械任務,而非社交或人際活動。 研究型(Investigative):喜歡研究和解決數學或科學問題,在這些領域表現出色,重視科學準確性和智力追求,而非領導或說服能力。 藝術型(Artistic):從事藝術、戲劇和音樂等創意活動,表現出色,重視原創性和自我表達,而非結構化或重複的任務。 社會型(Social):喜歡通過教學和輔導等活動幫助他人,在這些領域表現出色,重視支持和解決社會問題,而非使用機器或工具。 企業型(Enterprising):喜歡領導、說服和銷售想法或產品,並在這些角色中表現出色,重視在領導、政治或商業方面的成功,而非分析或觀察性任務。 常規型(Conventional):喜歡以系統和有序的方式處理數據、記錄或機器,在這些領域表現出色,重視商業成功,並視自己為有組織能力的人,擅長遵循結構化計劃。   對學生的啟示 1. 學術道路 了解這些類型對於在教育和職業道路上導航的學生來說可以提供寶貴的見解。利用霍蘭德職業類型作為靈感,學生可以探索更符合自己興趣的專業。以下是一些建議,幫助你啟動探索:   現實型:考慮工程、環境科學或體育相關的專業。 研究型:探索生物學、化學、物理、數據科學或計算機科學等領域。 藝術型:追求美術、設計、建築、語言藝術或表演藝術的學習。 社會型:研究教育、心理學、公共衛生、社會工作或體育等專業。 企業型:思考政治學、商業、市場營銷或企業創業。 常規型:專注於會計、金融、資訊系統或計算機科學。 2. 如何解讀測驗結果 完成 RIASEC 測驗後,會得到一個由三個字母組成的代碼(例如:RIA)。每個字母代表你最強的三個職業類型,並且這些類型的順序反映了你對該類型工作的偏好,測驗結果的第一個字母代表你最強的職業興趣,第二個字母是次要的興趣,第三個字母則是你相對較弱的興趣。   然而,這不代表你一定要照這個優先排序,假如你的 Holland Code 是 RIA,你同時也可以考慮 RAI、IRA、IAR、ARI、AIR 等五類的職業。從統計學來看,每組代碼皆有六種類別的可能,本文將只針對不重複的三個字母做介紹和分類,學生可以多多探索不同的排列組合。   另外,假設你測驗得第四高分的字母,分數與第三高分的字母相差不遠,那麼該類別也是可以考慮的。以下圖為例,測驗結果為 ARI,但 I 只比 S 和 E 高出一點點分數,因此你也可參考 ARS 和 ARE 這些組合代碼的職業。   3. 可能的組合及職業機會 RIA(現實型、研究型、藝術型):這類人是創意問題解決者,喜歡動手工作,並對設計有敏銳的眼光。他們可能會在結合技術技能和藝術表達的機會中蓬勃發展。 職業例子:景觀建築師、商業與工業設計師。 RIS(現實型、研究型、社會型):這類人通常富有同情心,對於健康護理和環境角色感興趣。他們在幫助他人的同時,能夠運用科學專業知識。 職業例子:放射治療師、醫生、牙醫、運動訓練師、自然公園管理員。 RIE(現實型、研究型、企業型):這類人是實際的創新者,將科學知識與企業家精神相結合,尋求開發或推進技術或有效管理資源的機會。 職業例子:範圍管理員、生物燃料產品開發經理。   RIC(現實型、研究型、常規型):這些注重細節的人喜歡按計劃工作,完成結構化任務,並解決問題。他們通常選擇在監管行業工作,確保質量和合規性。 職業例子:土木工程技術專家、醫療器械技術人員、法醫科學技術人員。 RAS(現實型、藝術型、社會型):這些人具有極大的動態性、互動性和表現力,通常通過表演或體育藝術展示自己的創意和個性。他們喜歡與他人合作,並對自己的工作情感投入。 職業例子:舞者。 RAE(現實型、藝術型、企業型):這類人既有想像力又有動力,追求結合時尚和設計的職業。當創意與強烈的商業驅動結合時,這種組合有助於實現他們的願景。 職業例子:時尚設計師、模特、商品展示員。 RAC(現實型、藝術型、常規型):這類人是技藝高超的工匠和藝術家,特別重視工作中的結構和傳統。他們能夠以極大的注意力將自己的想法變為現實。 職業例子:家具修整工、樂器維修工、服裝助理、石材切割和雕刻工。 RSE(現實型、社會型、企業型):這些人活躍、有魅力,具有領導能力。他們在團隊運動中蓬勃發展,並在需要激勵和策略思考的角色中表現出色。 職業例子:教練和球探、運動員和競賽者。 RSC(現實型、社會型、常規型):這一組包含關心他人且有組織能力的人,通常在醫療或社區服務領域蓬勃發展,優先考慮服務和支持角色。 職業例子:護理助理、醫療助理、家庭健康助理、動物護理員。 REC(現實型、企業型、常規型):這類人結果導向,追求管理或銷售相關的職業。他們的個性幫助他們在有效實施系統和領導團隊實現目標方面表現出色。 職業例子:工業生產經理、警察、建築經理、銷售人員。 IAS(研究型、藝術型、社會型):這些人具備智力好奇心和創意,形成教育和藝術的完美組合。他們喜歡互動經驗,並通過工作解決社會問題。 職業例子:音樂治療師、社會學教師、建築教師、特殊教育教師。 IAE(研究型、藝術型、企業型):這些人是創新的思考者,對講故事和技術充滿熱情。他們可能在創意產業中蓬勃發展,將藝術視野與分析技能結合起來。 職業例子:視頻遊戲設計師、新聞分析師。 IAC(研究型、藝術型、常規型):這一組由注重細節的人組成,他們在技術和數字產業中表現出色,並在結構環境中專注於精確性和功能性,對創意有一定欣賞。 職業例子:技術作家、網頁設計師。 ISE(研究型、社會型、企業型):這些人具洞察力和戰略思維,將分析技能與了解人類行為的渴望相結合,因此在心理學和諮詢領域蓬勃發展。 職業例子:工業組織心理學家。 ISC(研究型、社會型、常規型):這些人具有同情心和組織能力,利用他們的分析技能改善系統,通常在醫療或支持角色中工作。 職業例子:註冊護士、藥劑師、基因顧問、聽力學家。 IEC(研究型、企業型、常規型):這類人是戰略思考者,通過結合分析技能和目標導向的思維,在商業或金融相關任務中表現出色,促進卓越的增長和效率。 職業例子:精算師、管理分析師、行銷策略師、金融風險專家。 ASE(藝術型、社會型、企業型):這些有魅力和創意的人在公共角色中蓬勃發展,讓自我表達和享受與觀眾建立聯繫成為可能。 職業例子:公關專家、演員、廣播主持人。 ASC(藝術型、社會型、常規型):這些人表現力豐富,非常適合教育和社區服務角色。他們在重視創意的環境中茁壯成長,同時為周圍的人提供結構和支持。 職業例子:口譯員和翻譯員、兒童照顧工作者。 AEC(藝術型、企業型、常規型):這類人非常多才多藝,驅動力強,適應能力強,能在媒體和行銷等創意產業中蓬勃發展,同時有效地傳達思想。 職業例子:廣告經理、編輯。 SEC(社會型、企業型、常規型):這些人具有吸引力和資源豐富,通常在需要人際技能和組織能力的銷售或社區導向角色中工作。 職業例子:社會和社區服務經理、籌款人、房地產銷售代理、旅遊導遊。 如何進行霍蘭德職業類型評估 步驟 1:免費參加霍蘭德職業類型評估 美國勞動部 https://www.mynextmove.org/explore/ip 測評公司 https://www.truity.com/test/holland-code-career-test 步驟 2:探索你主要職業興趣領域的可能職業 美國勞動部 https://www.onetonline.org/find/career 測評公司 https://www.truity.com/search-careers 通過利用霍蘭德職業類型的見解,學生可以在選擇大學專業和職業道路上找到方向,為未來的充實旅程奠定基礎。   Read this article in English: Discovering Your Path: Unlocking Your Potential with the Holland Code​   高中在校輔導&申請大學輔導專案,歡迎洽詢 A.

Guide to Volunteering: How to Choose the Right Volunteer Project for You
Sep 24, 2024
Volunteering is very common in many countries and major cities around the world, with students making up a significant proportion. Accumulating volunteer hours has always been a plus for students applying to schools, and is of tremendous help in showcasing extracurricular activities. Now, how can you find the volunteer project that is right for you?   Each volunteer organization has its unique focus. For example, volunteers at the library concentrate on document organization and book arrangement, while volunteers educating children in rural primary schools emphasize developing teaching skills and contribution as well as support to underprivileged communities. In this article, we will recommend volunteer projects based on different academic fields, so students are able to learn relevant knowledge while contributing to society and gaining experience in their respective areas.     Firstly, if you're a student interested in pursuing a career in STEM fields such as engineering, physics, mathematics, chemistry, or biology, you might consider volunteering with the following organizations:   Taipei Astronomical Museum National Taiwan Science Education Center National Museum of Natural Science Taipei Zoo Taipei City Animal Protection Office Taiwan Rabbit Saving Association Rodents Care Association Help-Save-A-Pet Fund Taiwan Asia Animal Welfare Association Taiwan Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Green Streets Program (Improving Environmental Quality and Quality of Life through green and sustainable infrastructure.)   Participating in volunteering is more than making contributions to the society; it shows your passion in that field. Let’s say students volunteering with animal-related organizations might be interested in biology and environmental preservation—the experience may lay a foundation for future careers such as veterinary medicine. If you are passionate about Health and Medicine, consider volunteering in hospitals, blood donation centers, or public health centers. In these environments, students are allowed to observe the interactions between medical professionals and patients up close and, if given the chance, participate in hospital-related activities. For instance, a student aspiring to attend medical school once organized a children’s medical summer camp and designed an activity—using tweezer to pick up beads—to improve hand stability, which was an interesting practice for children dream of becoming a surgeon. Next, for students interested in Humanities—Culture, History, Linguistics, etc. volunteer opportunities are found at: Library Academia Historia Office National Museum of History Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall Li Kwoh-ting’s Residence Hakka Affairs Bureau Parent-Child Center Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigines Translators without Borders Missing Maps   Seizing and applying volunteer experiences around would lead to opportunities of drafting or editing articles. In particular, a student volunteering at a history museum might be responsible for introducing history works to visitors besides handling administrative tasks and being on-call at exhibitions. As a result, he had the chance to dive into the background of the history writers and gain knowledge in the history field.   In the field of Social Science, activities closely related to social work are more indispensable: Ministry of Examination Orphanage Taiwan Fund for Children and Families Child Welfare League Foundation Taiwan Long-Term Care Professional Association Step30 International Ministries Department of Social Welfare Charity Foundation Taiwan Press Photographer Association Micro Social Welfare Matching Platform Social Welfare Service Center Child Safety Foundation Infinitas YMCA Tarjimly SALT Kitchen Beyond Horizon TED Translators YAPA Kids Teach Parkinson Society Love for Our Elders Autism Today Foundation Settlement Workers In School Neighborhood Cleanup Programs Ripple Foundation – Wave Blog Contributor   The volunteer opportunities listed above are not limited to in-person service; many can be done online—including child education, serving the elderly, and assisting disadvantaged groups. Here’s a small suggestion: if you live or grew up in a non-metropolitan area, you might have more opportunities to engaßge with specific communities such as Indigenous groups. Taking advantage of these opportunities not only allows you to learn about different cultures and contribute to them but also enables you to include these experiences in your application essays. Especially when writing about diversity or community, describing how you learned from people of different backgrounds would make it more compelling to the admission officers that you possess the ability of adapting to the diversity of college.      In addition to academic subjects, there are also volunteer services related to Arts. Here, we categorize arts-related volunteer services into Music and Fine Arts. If you are interested in music, you can consider volunteering with organizations like the Taipei Music Foundation for the Visually Impaired or Taipei Symphony Orchestra. These experiences can help you learn to assist others with different instruments or develop your skills in a particular instrument. For those interested in Fine Arts, volunteering at art museums or ceramic museums would provide opportunities to learn more about exhibition management and to interact with the public. Finally, there are also relevant volunteer opportunities in the field of special talents. Given the variety of sports, here we talk about soccer academies, fencing summer camps, and basketball summer camps. For instance, a high school soccer team player once took charge of being a teaching assistant at a summer camp; a fencing athlete once served as a volunteer translator in an international competition. What’s more, students have also been known to organize the venue and guide fans to their seats at the P. League+ Taiwan, a men’s basketball league. These experiences not only provide a closer view of the games for the students but also provide the benefit of accumulating volunteer hours.   We list the above examples for your reference. In fact, there are many other unmentioned non-profit organizations waiting for students to explore. We hope by sharing this article, students will think about volunteer opportunities related to their future paths, utilize their strengths to give back to society, and make valuable choices.   閱讀中文版文章:志工服務參加指南:如何選擇適合你的志工項目   高中在校輔導&申請大學輔導專案,歡迎洽詢 A.

志工服務參加指南:如何選擇適合你的志工項目
Sep 09, 2024
志工服務在世界各國及各大縣市中非常普遍,參加者包含了國家民眾,其中學生佔有相當大的比例。累積志工服務時數一直是學生申請學校的重要加分項目,對於課外活動的表現也有極大幫助。那麼在挑選志工服務項目時,要怎麼找到最適合自己的呢?   每個志工機構都有其獨特的重點,例如圖書館志工專注於文書整理和書籍擺設,而在偏鄉小學教育孩子的志工則強調培養教學能力和對社會弱勢群體的貢獻與支持。在這篇文章中,我們將根據不同的科系領域推薦適合的志工項目,讓學生在貢獻社會的同時學習相關文化。     首先,如果你是一位想往 STEM 方面發展的同學,比如工程、物理、數學、化學、生物等,你可以考慮參加看看以下的這些志工團隊: 天文科學教育館 科學教育館  自然博物館 動物園  動物保護處 台灣愛兔協會 台灣愛鼠協會 流浪動物家園 亞洲動物福利協會 防止虐待動物協會  Green Streets Program(用綠化和永續基礎設施來改善環境品質和生活品質)   參與服務不僅能幫助社會,還能展示你對該領域的熱情。例如,參加動物相關的志工活動的學生,可能對生物感興趣,也可能對環境保育有興趣,而這些經驗可以為他們未來向獸醫等方向發展打下基礎。     如果你對醫學或 Health & Medicine 有熱忱,可以考慮在醫院、捐血中心或衛生所等擔任志工。在這些環境中,學生可以親身近距離觀察專業醫護人員與患者的互動,有機會的話還能親手參與相關事務。舉個例子,曾有一位想讀醫學院的學生開辦了一個兒童醫學夏令營,並設計了用鑷子夾拼豆的活動來提高手部穩定性,這對於一個想當外科醫生的孩子而言是個有趣的練習。   以文科來說,和 Humanities 文化、歷史、語言等類型的志工項目有: 圖書館 國史館 歷史博物館 中正紀念堂 李國鼎故居 客家事務局 親子夢想館 原住⺠博物館 Translators without Borders Missing Maps   對身邊資源的把握與應用志工經驗能提供選寫或編輯文章的機會。例如,一位在歷史博物館擔任志工的學生,除了負責行政業務和現場秩序維護外,還有可能介紹歷史作品給參觀者,並深入了解那些歷史作家的背景故事,從而增進對歷史領域的知識。   在 Social Science 的領域中,社會工作密切相關的活動更是不可或缺,例如: 考選部 育幼院 家扶中心 兒福聯盟 長照協會 舊鞋救命 政府社會處 慈善基金會 新聞攝影協會 微型社福媒合平台 社會福利服務中心 兒童安全文教基金會 Infinitas 無遠弗屆 YMCA Tarjimly SALT Kitchen Beyond Horizon TED Translators YAPA Kids Teach Parkinson Society Love for Our Elders Autism Today Foundation Settlement Workers In School Neighborhood Cleanup Programs Ripple Foundation - Wave Blog Contributor   以上所列出來的這些志工項目不僅限於實地服務,還有許多是透過線上進行的,包括兒童教育、服務年長人群、協助弱勢族群等。這裡有一個小建議:如果你生活或成長的環境不是在大城市,或許會有更多機會可以接觸到像原住民等特定族群。利用這樣的機會,不僅可以認識不同的文化並做出貢獻,還能將這些經驗寫入申請作文中,尤其在撰寫有關diversity或community的題目時,描述你如何從不同背景的人身上學習,能更說服招生官你有適應大學多元校園的能力。   除了主學科,同樣少不了 Arts 相關的志工服務。我們將藝術志工服務分為 Music(音樂)和 Fine Arts(美術)。如果你對音樂感興趣,可以參考視障音樂文教基金會或管弦樂志工,這些經驗可以讓你了解如何使用不同的樂器幫助他人,或發揮你在某一樂器上的特長。若你對美術感興趣,可以參加美術館或陶瓷博物館等的志工活動,這些經歷讓你有機會更深入了解展場管理並和民眾互動。   最後,在特殊才藝領域也有相關的志工服務機會。由於運動項目繁多,我們以足球學院志工、擊劍夏令營志工和籃球夏令營志工為代表,例如高中校隊球員到夏令營擔任助教,或擊劍選手在國際賽事中擔任翻譯志工,也有同學曾經在P League台灣籃球賽整理場地和引導球迷入座等。這些經驗不僅讓學生有機會近距離觀賞比賽,還能累積志工時數。   以上舉例的項目僅供參考,實際上還有許多未提及的非營利組織在等著學生去探索。我們希望通過此文誘導學生思考與自己未來方向相關的志工服務,發揮所長來回饋社會,做出有價值的選擇。   Read this article in English: Guide to Volunteering: How to Choose the Right Volunteer Project for You​   高中在校輔導&申請大學輔導專案,歡迎洽詢 A.

從性格到職業:利用 MBTI 導航到適合你的未來道路
Aug 28, 2024
如何根據 MBTI 選擇你的未來道路? How do you choose your future path regarding your MBTI?    在這個充滿無限可能性的時代,選擇正確的生涯道路可能令人感到迷茫。然而,通過了解自己的 MBTI 邁爾斯-布里格斯性格類型(Myers-Briggs Type Indicator),你可以發現哪些方面最契合你的性格特質,掌握自己的 MBTI 類型,不僅能增進自我認識,還能引導你找到與天性偏好相符的興趣道路,讓你在生涯探索中獲得更大的成就感和滿足感。無論是即將踏入大學,還是在學習中尋求新方向,瞭解自身的性格類型將助你找到適合自己的未來。 然而,該測驗並不是建立在嚴格的臨床驗證上,因此它更適合被視為一種自我發現工具,而非完全精確的科學診斷。換句話說,這個工具對於探索中的學生而言是一種有用的參考,卻不應該當作唯一依據來做出重大人生決策,因此請學生善用批判性思考,避免盲目追從。 MBTI 根據四個主要的二分法將性格分為 16 種不同的類型(16 Personalities)     1.   外向 (Extraversion, E) vs. 內向 (Introversion, I)​​​​ 外向 (E):從外部世界、社交互動中獲得能量,通常喜歡與人交流,並在與他人互動中感到充滿活力。 內向 (I):從內部世界、獨處中獲得能量,更傾向於思考內心世界,通常需要時間獨處來恢復能量。       2.   感覺 (Sensing, S) vs. 直覺 (Intuition, N) 感覺 (S):注重當下的具體事實和細節,更傾向於依賴感官經驗,並且喜歡處理實際、可觀察的事物。 直覺 (N):偏向於關注未來的可能性和潛在意義,善於聯想和想像,喜歡處理抽象的概念和模式。       3.   思考 (Thinking, T) vs. 情感 (Feeling, F) 思考 (T):以邏輯、客觀分析為基礎來做決策,重視公平和一致性,通常更理性和客觀。 情感 (F):以價值觀、個人感受為基礎來做決策,重視和諧與他人的情感反應,通常更具同理心和關懷他人。       4.   判斷 (Judging, J) vs. 感知 (Perceiving, P) 判斷 (J):喜歡結構化和有序的生活,傾向於做計劃和遵循計劃,通常在未來不確定性中尋求穩定。 感知 (P):喜歡靈活和開放的生活方式,更傾向於隨機應變和保持選擇的開放性,通常更容易適應變化。     ENFJ 主人公 - 外向、直覺、情感、判斷 ENFJ 熱情、同理心強、反應靈敏且負責任。高度關注他人的情感、需求和動機。看到每個人的潛力,想幫助他們實現潛能。可能會成為個人和團體成長的催化劑。善於社交,能促進團體中的他人,並提供鼓舞人心的領導。 適合的科系:Art, Business administration, Communication, Education, Marketing, Public Relations, Psychology, Political science, Sociology 適合的職業:Community organizer, Social worker, Guidance counselor, Educator, Marketing manager, Human resources director, Interior designer, Craft artist, Industrial/organizational psychologist, Veterinary assistant, Elementary school teacher, Broadcast technician, Meeting/convention planner, Public relations specialist, Career counselor, Home health aide     ENFP 競選者 -

Tips to Level Up Your Campus Life: Ultimate Guide to Student Club Selection
Aug 09, 2024
When you start middle school, you're immediately introduced to hundreds of clubs established by your seniors. You are told how these clubs will enhance your learning beyond academics and enrich your campus life. We bet you’re wondering where to start! No worries. We’re here to guide you through the ins and outs of selecting the clubs that suit you best!    There is no absolute right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing clubs. However, it is worth noting that this decision may influence the persuasiveness of your college application. Hear us out. Clubs are a great opportunity for you to discover and cultivate your interests. If the club you choose is related to your intended field of study, your club experience can enhance your college application and increase your competitiveness. Below, we have organized some common clubs into different categories to help you put your best foot forward.     Students planning to pursue science and engineering fields, such as programming, physics, mathematics, chemistry, and robotics, should consider joining STEM-related clubs. Some common options include: Science Competition Team Math Mind AMC Math Club Chemistry Club Biology Club Invention Club VEX Robotics FIRST Robotics Competition Code the Future with Artificial Intelligence Electronics Club  Coding Club   Although these clubs are primarily designed for students interested in natural sciences or engineering, others passionate about these fields are still welcome to join. You can build your experiences through club activities such as schoolwide and external competitions, innovative projects, and research. These experiences will become valuable for your application essays, providing substantial and convincing details to your narrative. For example, when writing the UC essay prompt #6: "Think about an academic subject that inspires you. Describe how you have furthered this interest inside and/or outside of the classroom," you can mention both your course selections (inside of the classroom) and what you did/learned during club activities (outside of the classroom).     On the other hand, we encourage students interested in the humanities and social sciences, such as business, psychology, history, etc., to choose humanities and social science-related clubs. Common ones include: National History Day Club History Bowl  Psychology Club Geography Club Economics Competition Club Business Investment Team Entrepreneurship Club   These clubs allow you to explore your interests and expand your knowledge and passion for your chosen field. For example, consider the Common App essay prompt #6: "Describe a topic, idea, or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose all track of time. Why does it captivate you? What or who do you turn to to learn more?" Let's say you joined the History Bowl club. You can participate in various team competitions and knowledge quizzes related to history. Through this process, you will learn something new and might discover your strong interest in certain historical events or periods. As you become more involved in this club, you might find yourself frequently absorbing history books, seeking guidance from your teachers or seniors, and becoming more active in club activities to strengthen your learning. This immersive learning experience can thereby transform into sincere and meaningful application essays.     Additionally, many students have outstanding leadership and communication skills. To bring their expressive abilities to the next level, students interested in making a positive impact through showcasing their talents can join clubs related to academic competitions, public speaking, media, and student organizations, as listed below:    Academic Competition Academic Decathlon World Scholar Cup   Public Speaking Debate Club Speech Model United Nations TEDx    Journalism Broadcast Club Newspaper + Literary Journal School Magazine Podcast Club Reading Club Yearbook Team Graphic Novels Club   Leadership Student Council  Student Association Student House   Students can effectively develop their communication and adaptability skills by participating in the aforementioned clubs while collecting valuable materials for their application essays. For example, suppose you join your school's Model United Nations (MUN) club. In that case, you can polish your speaking and communication skills and cultivate your international outlook by exchanging perspectives with other delegates. When applying to colleges, you can share your proposals for addressing international issues in your essay to demonstrate your insights.     In addition to clubs that build your knowledge and skills, most schools also offer social service oriented clubs or organizations for students to engage in volunteer activities, such as beach clean-ups, teaching in underprivileged areas, blood donation drives, and more. Some common clubs include: Interact Club Rotary Club Amnesty International   Red Cross Key Club SALT Kitchen Pride Alliance Taiwan Madhatter Knits   Participating in these clubs can make it easier for you to respond to UC essay prompt #7: "What have you done to make your school or your community a better place?" Such activities also help students accumulate volunteer experience. These experiences are particularly valuable for students applying to social work-related programs. With compelling stories of social contribution and extracurricular involvement, applicants to other fields can also showcase their impact on their communities.     In addition to academic clubs, there are many talent-oriented clubs, such as those related to the arts and sports. We sort art-related clubs into three main categories: Music, Performing Arts, and Fine Arts. Common clubs include:   Music Orchestra Rock Band Violin Beginners Guitar Club Music Production Club Pop Music Club Acapella Club Chinese Drumming   Performing Arts  Drama Club Musical Club Movie Production Club Musical Set Design Film Society   Fine Arts Art Creation Club Oil Painting Club Photography Club  Architecture Club  Urban Design Club Sketching 101  3D Art Clay Club     In addition, most schools typically have sports and athletic clubs or clubs that cultivate students’ special interests. Based on our survey of several schools, here are some clubs that fall under these categories:    Athletic/Sports Swimming Team  Golf Team Fencing Team Soccer Team  Tennis Team Basketball Team Badminton Team Volleyball Team Table Tennis Club Taekwondo Club Wushu Club Boxing Club Dance Team Modern Dance K-POP Dance Ballet Cheerleading Team  Cross Country Club Trivia Club  Chess Team (Yes, chess is a sport)   Entertainment/Special Interests Balloon Club Cooking Club Baking Club Mahjong Club Horse Riding  Rollerblading Divination Club Game Development 101 Flower Club Needle Felting Crochet and Crafts Creation  Green Thumb   When answering the UC essay prompt #3: "What would you say is your greatest talent or skill? How have you developed and demonstrated that talent over time?" you can use your experiences in the aforementioned clubs as the main content, describing interests and hobbies beyond extracurricular activities. For example, a student who joins the basketball team might define their talent as playing basketball and discuss how they joined the school team, participated in competitions, and even won an MVP award. You can showcase your achievements, abilities, and personality traits to impress the admissions officers by telling your story.      For those interested in language or cultural studies, you might consider clubs such as the Japanese Club, Chinese Club, Chinese Calligraphy, Korean Club, or Food Culture Club to learn more about new cultures and foster empathy and inclusivity.     This article is intended as a general guidance for you to choose the clubs that best align with your interests and goals. Sure, there might still be other clubs out there with unique philosophies and characteristics. Well, they'll be yours to explore!   閱讀中文版文章:校園生活加分Tips:學生挑選社團指南   高中在校輔導&申請大學輔導專案,歡迎洽詢 A.

校園生活加分Tips:學生挑選社團指南
Jul 22, 2024
在高中裡,很多學校會讓學生接觸各種學長姊所建立的社團,去增進課外活動、豐富校園生活。當學校提供上百種社團供選擇時,你知道該如何選出最適合自己的社團嗎?   事實上,參加哪個社團並沒有絕對的對錯,然而這個決定可能會影響你大學申請文件的說服力。社團是一個可以幫學生發現並培養興趣的好機會,如果參加的社團與未來想就讀的科系相關,將會為你的大學申請加分,提高競爭力!   以下我們將社團分類,希望能透過這種方式協助學生找到最適合自己的社團。     一心嚮往理工科的學生,比如工程、物理、數學、化學、程式設計、機器人等,可以考慮挑選與 STEM 相關的社團,一些常見的有: Science Competition Team Math Mind AMC Math Club Chemistry Club Biology Club Invention Club VEX Robotics FIRST Robotics Competition Code the Future with Artificial Intelligence Electronics Club  Coding Club   這些社團主要針對對自然科學或機械感興趣的學生,當然其他對這些領域有興趣的同學也歡迎參加。學生可以通過社團舉辦的活動,如校內外比賽、創新項目和研究,來增加自己的經歷。這些寶貴經驗將成為未來撰寫申請作文的豐富素材,使文章內容更加充實,具有說服力!例如加州大學UC寫作第六題:"Think about an academic subject that inspires you. Describe how you have furthered this interest inside and/or outside of the classroom." 可以在作文中提到 inside(如在學校的課程)和 outside(如社團期間所學)的經歷。     相對而言,如果學生想往社會或人文科學方面發展,例如商學、心理學、歷史學等,我們會鼓勵挑選 Social Sciences 相關的社團。常見的幾類社團如下: National History Day Club History Bowl  Psychology Club Geography Club Economics Competition Club Business Investment Team Entrepreneurship Club ​ 通過這些社團,學生可以探索自己的興趣愛好,並在過程中體驗該領域的知識與熱情。以申請大學通用系統Common App的寫作第六題為例:"Describe a topic, idea, or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose all track of time. Why does it captivate you? What or who do you turn to when you want to learn more?" 假如你加入了History Bowl社團,你將有機會參加各種歷史相關的團隊競賽和知識問答,在這個過程中學習到許多之前未曾接觸過的信息,或許藉機發現自己對某些歷史事件或時期有濃厚興趣。隨著你在這個社團中的深入參與,你可能會發現自己經常沉浸在歷史書籍中,而當你想要了解更多時,你會尋求老師或學長姐的指導,更加積極參與社團的各項活動深化所學。像這種全心投入的學習過程都能夠成為後續申請大學的作文題材,也會使作文讀起來真誠而別具意義。     很多學生擁有卓越的領導能力與溝通技巧,希望透過展現自身長才來對他人產生正面影響,如果你是力求提升表達能力的學生,可以參加以下學術競賽、公開演講、新聞媒體和學生組織相關的社團: 學術競賽 Academic Competition Academic Decathlon World Scholar Cup 公開演講 Public Speaking Debate Club Speech Model United Nations TEDx ​ 新聞 Journalism Broadcast Club Newspaper + Literary Journal School Magazine Podcast Club Reading Club Yearbook Team Graphic Novels Club 學生組織 Leadership Student Council  Student Association Student House​   參加上述社團,學生可以有效地培養溝通與應變能力,寫申請作文時,這些經歷將成為豐富的素材,讓你更容易地寫出內容充實的文章。假如你參加了學校的MUN模擬聯合國社,你可以透過和其他代表的交流增進表達能力和培養國際觀,也可以在日後將你想解決國際議題的提案描述到作文內,展現你的見解。     除了學習知識與技能之外,大部分的學校絕對少不了 Coummity Service 相關的服務性社團或組織,會舉辦志工活動,像是淨灘、偏鄉教學、捐血等等,一些常見的有: Interact Club Rotary Club Amnesty International   Red Cross Key Club SALT Kitchen Pride Alliance Taiwan Madhatter Knits​   參加這些社團可以更貼切地回答 加州大學UC寫作第七題:"What have you done to make your school or your community a better place?" 這類的題目,同時累積志工經驗。這些活動對於想申請社會工作相關科系和醫學相關科系的學生特別有幫助,同時也能讓申請其他領域的同學獲得社會貢獻和課外活動的故事,展現對生活週遭事物的影響力。     除了服務性與學術性社團,還有許多才藝型社團,例如藝術與體育。我們將藝術相關領域分成三大類,分別是音樂(Music)、表演藝術(Performing arts)和美術(Fine arts),常見的社團如下: 音樂 Music Orchestra Rock Band Violin Beginners Guitar Club Music Production Club Pop Music Club Acapella Club Chinese Drumming 表演藝術 Performing Arts  Drama Club Musical Club Movie Production Club Musical Set Design Film Society 美術 Fine Arts Art Creation Club Oil Painting Club Photography Club  Architecture Club  Urban Design Club Sketching 101  3D Art Clay Club ​   除此之外,每所學校通常都會有運動校隊、體育社團或讓學生培養興趣的社團。根據我們對幾所學校的調查,以下是一些常見的社團: 體育隊/運動類 Athletic/Sports Swimming Team  Golf Team Fencing Team Soccer Team  Tennis Team Basketball Team Badminton Team Volleyball Team Table Tennis Club Taekwondo Club Wushu Club Boxing Club Dance Team Modern Dance K-POP Dance Ballet Cheerleading Team  Cross Country Club Trivia Club  Chess Team(是的,棋藝屬於體育競賽)​ 娛樂活動/特殊長才 Entertainment/Special Interests Balloon Club Cooking Club Baking Club Mahjong Club Horse Riding  Rollerblading Divination Club Game Development 101 Flower Club Needle Felting Crochet and Crafts Creation  Green Thumb​   在回答加州大學UC寫作第三題:"What would you say is your greatest talent or skill? How have you developed and demonstrated that talent over time?" 時,學生可以利用參加上述社團的經歷作為主要內容,描述除了課外活動的興趣愛好。比如,參加籃球隊的學生可以將自己打籃球的特長透過加入校隊、參加校外比賽,甚至在某場比賽中獲得MVP的經歷中展現得淋漓盡致。通過講故事的方式展現自己的成就,不僅能顯出學生的能力和人格特質,也能打動招生官。     如果是想往語言或文化相關科系的學生,可以參考像是 Japanese Club、Chinese Club、Chinese Calligraphy、Korean Club、Food Culture Club 等等的社團,去擴大學習新文化的機會,訓練自己的包容力,要記得,國外大學時常強調校園的多樣性,在申請作文中時常會問:"What can you add to our school's diversity community?" 這種題目。     上述社團僅供參考,實際上,還有許多未提及的社團,也同樣有其獨特的理念和特質。我們希望通過此文為學生提供選擇社團的方向,幫助他們找到最適合並對未來最有幫助的社團,做出明智且有價值的選擇。   Read this article in English: Tips to Level Up Your Campus Life: Ultimate Guide to Student Club Selection   高中在校輔導&申請大學輔導專案,歡迎洽詢 A.
