These pioneering efforts can counter young people&#8217;s disengagement in school and the disappointment millennials express when they talk about their educational experiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2009, the <a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001h5OXHIFCOrkAHFGPUZu8WZRsrnbiBlImnwBRT9t1tgnw-r_ZYp5vmdudsOe4uULVBMAd37AaAbGF-_8lC9vG0wyasm3IXHYa0DrfJQ4qq0jhkSWgtLvweFfnRjtK5Xdng-AqWyw10JDO37ywX0rSIFZrkosPGHmvCbCxTtuGA9Awy-P0HZqZEfJqJg0JMvBwkYWE2HR9jZ_oGUWFUO0UAw==&amp;c=L12M4yUD12zVmVBWzJWdVHZhNAX2zeEh1wAQUhlVRezgW53mC3ftmg==&amp;ch=AqZXlSZXUL7-f_4U-P9AXjENipxWm-Yhnk62wo-DyKIhKiCxeq0j9Q==\">Gallup Student Poll<\/a> has documented that students going through school experience an &#8220;engagement cliff.&#8221; In grade 5, 26 percent say they are actively disengaged or not engaged in their education, a figure that rises to 60 percent in grade 12. Disengagement affects entrepreneurial aspiration &#8211; the talent and energy needed to build a thriving business &#8211; which also declines through high school. Actively disengaged students are over seven times as likely as their engaged peers to feel discouraged about the future, while engaged students are nearly five times as likely to be hopeful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research shows that sources of social capital like affiliation with new networks and organizations create unexpected opportunities and strong feelings in young people of engagement and self-agency \u2014 the power or sense of control individuals have over their own lives. Creating a social-capital approach to school and youth engagement can contribute significantly to overcoming the disconnect and disappointment many young people experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These approaches also exemplify the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/New-Faster-Cheaper-Alternatives-College\/dp\/1946885479\">hybrid educational intermediaries<\/a> that create \u201cfaster and cheaper\u201d pathways to jobs and careers. Their elements include structured peer interactions; mentorships, apprenticeships and internships; visits to service and professional organizations; work-based learning;&nbsp; career and technical academies; dual enrollment in high school and postsecondary institutions; boot camps for acquiring discrete knowledge or skills; staffing and placement services; and new approaches to paying for these programs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these help develop young people\u2019s occupational identity \u2014 their conscious awareness of themselves as workers \u2014 and vocational selves. They cultivate knowledge and skills for what students know as well as for whom they know.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more, see <a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001h5OXHIFCOrkAHFGPUZu8WZRsrnbiBlImnwBRT9t1tgnw-r_ZYp5vmdudsOe4uULVZw-z7poz9a-5YVoEzDKRzv73eVB0XRG57FMI49aVvlUPI1oo220BEWVUMhsq_2km8foN_Zha2yM12zXTIU_b2ynRF7pTjhEmbMs_3Wm3i86LNj8M2zugk7f0oLapZj55ZAzwnJfGRpbrVvc26a1Fr3CnpeGBbA-dt1TROiqvMYkuFEpZojUEuywk3s9XxA76o01uvbHrNAXahpPDPUuJni0R24XTaKCx-1CSbLWC2AoJ3pPKLmLS3XY6e8ibTIw9WxmIbpLVCbLvOoKgfRs7TOKvbWQDcWFesdTCJSdI2x3P_EqAr4-gROCGPqcDU0PEvW6gZFsQkhQ9gupro4IFFUCuZDu2wG2pgI5SLRVNCKe_KVG-Krl5MS-gGMX5aUxUn31NJ579MrfA8xKv0GY7tqFW98Vj7TU6uyxnwua4-BGR1Xc2-gyBdVSZ1YNRmhoZw2f4BARJ1MSeODz-2GAOBV8rlLlKmREBP9dbv3IFmL7y2f1Szh1jL2zEVaoRcH6kuEPhKVLCZ889lKYFoTcHxw==&amp;c=L12M4yUD12zVmVBWzJWdVHZhNAX2zeEh1wAQUhlVRezgW53mC3ftmg==&amp;ch=AqZXlSZXUL7-f_4U-P9AXjENipxWm-Yhnk62wo-DyKIhKiCxeq0j9Q==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.the74million.org\/article\/manno-how-do-you-keep-21st-century-students-engaged-by-building-up-their-vocational-selves-some-programs-that-make-that-happen\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Writing for The 74, Bruno Manno explores programs that help nurture students\u2019 occupational identities and vocational selves.
