Computer-Based Career Information Systems The adage "information is power" can certainly be applied to the marriage of career information with computers. In an era that is characterized by a rapidly changing employment and occupational outlook, the ability to access computerized career information has been empowering to both youth and adults (Bloch 1989; Tice and Gill 1991). Defined as "all that people need to know to make choices and take action . . . in relation to their paid or unpaid occupational

Further, Shierholz (2014) presents evidence regarding high unemployment at all levels of education since the Great Recession (Figure 1.), therefore skilled vs. non-skilled is a moot point. While the statistics do reflect unemployment in all areas, what is

beginning of the text. Immediately, Estrella wonders, “So what is this?” when she finds Perfecto’s tools in his tool chest and again when she fails to decipher the alphabet on the chalkboard.

They make him think he is mad and they also make Olivia think he is mad because of the funny way in which he is acting. There is also the theme of mad love. Some examples of this are Orsino being madly

BILLY BUDD      There are many ways you can argue if the novel Billy Budd was a good novel or a bad one. You can determine this by looking at such things as plot, character, and the use of language.

My first impression of A Raisin In the Sun was that it was bland and uninteresting. The first scene in the story consisted of a woman waking up her son and husband and feeding them breakfast.
