Name community workers seen on an outing
When to use this goal
For students 16 to 21 in community-based instruction who pass many workplaces without noticing the jobs inside. Present levels in communication decide the response mode (speech, photos, device).
- Baseline
- On the first 2 outings, plan 5 moments where a worker is clearly visible at a task. Record whether the student named the job and a task without prompting.
- Tips
- Talk with the store or business manager first, and never interrupt workers. The would I like it part feeds the student's list of jobs to try in work-based learning.
- Limits
- What is visible on an outing varies; note the site each time. Naming jobs is awareness; tryouts show interest and fit.

Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.
Met: Condition. Stated.
Met: Unit fits the behavior. Opportunities fits this behavior.
Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.
Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.
Met: Method produces the metric. Opportunity (trial) recording gives opportunities data.
Met: Review timeframe. Stated.
Met: Baseline and target compatible. Same unit, change in the right direction.
Met: Aligned with area of need. Still about Career Exploration.
Met: Level of support. Defined.

- Record up to 5 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
