ChatterHigh
"How Does ChatterHigh Foster Hope?
By exposing students to a variety of career and post-secondary options, we help students engage in inquiry-based learning and develop vocational identity. Students begin to picture themselves following these paths and set goals to work towards a particular career. Small milestones built into the gamified platform build their sense of efficacy, and allow pathways to become clearer. There will always be obstacles in the way of our goals, and our Mindful Modules help students build the life skills to view obstacles as a challenge rather than a setback."
