Webpages – HS.19 – Visioning Skills
This is a LifeKnowledge high school FFA lesson (HS.19) on Visioning Skills that teaches students how to form a mental picture of a vision, evaluate its current status and challenges, and visualize the completed outcome along with potential roadblocks. Through guided visualization activities, brainstorming using the five W’s and one H, and a mind-mapping drawing exercise, students learn to define the components needed to turn a vision into reality. A test (HS.19.Test) is included to measure comprehension.
