How to use this without boxing students in
An exploration tool, not a classification one. These pedagogical guidelines protect students from being reduced to a result.
- RIASEC measures current interests, not talent, destiny, or intelligence.
- The 15 programs each student sees are a small sample: Colombia has hundreds of other programs, and university is not the only route.
- Teenagers are still developing; their interests will shift with experience, and that is healthy.
- A low score on a RIASEC type does not mean the student cannot or should not explore that path.
- Use the quiz as a starting point for conversation, never as a classification or diagnostic tool.
