Howland High School Financial Literacy students are getting a closer look at careers in finance through virtual reality.
Career counselors from the Educational Service Center of Eastern Ohio recently brought VR headsets to the classroom, allowing students to explore two career simulations related to the Finance pathway: Claims Adjuster and Financial Analyst.
Students compared and contrasted the two career experiences as part of their coursework.
The activity also counted as one of the hands-on experiences for the Finance Pre-Apprenticeship being implemented this year in the high school's Personal Finance classes.
