Pathways; Pick Topics, Pick Projects; - Paul Lubinski, DTM

Summary: Are you or your club's members struggling with what to do for your next Pathways project, or how to select the right project for your interests and preferred speech topics?  That is a valid concern.

We will discuss as a group the alignment of your interests, your goals, and your preferred speech topics, and how to support that alignment with Pathways project options.  We will look at examples from our own experiences of our hobbies, our work or studies, our volunteer activities, anything important to us.  Then we'll discuss which projects from which levels can support those examples.  Along the way, we'll look at some features of the new learning management system and related resources.
Key takeaways:
* Multiple Pathways level / project combinations are available as options for topics of importance to you.
* Each project is an opportunity to learn and to apply that learning to what you're already passionate about and what you already need to do.
* After this dialogue with your fellow session participants, you can engage in similar dialogue with individual
members of your club.
