The task MY FUTURE CAREER
Students have to learn about themselves. They have to research a career field and make a presentation to their group-mates.
They should find what work they are interested at and what abilities they have. They are to find the answers to the following questions:
What do you do in this job? What is a typical day like?
What skills are necessary?
What training and/or education are required?
What kinds of job opportunities exist? What is the employment outlook?
What is the average salary? How much can you expect to earn?
Describe the work conditions (indoor/outdoor, travel required, work with people or machines, etc.)
Students have to describe how the above information relates to their personally:
Do you feel you have the skills needed or could learn them? Is the training/education required consistent with your future plans? Will the salary and work conditions support the kind of life style you envision for yourself?
Imagine yourself in the career you researched. Prepare a presentation that will illustrate your career to the class. Include in your presentation what employment trends may affect your business or field. It can include imaginary:
resumes
brochure or ad selling your company's services
a web page or Power Point presentation
Students had to research the history and current use of computer-based programs. Further, after having completed students research, they had to create and deliver a 10-15 minutes presentation (or computerized) and report back to the class.
A presentation should include:
Major components of the computer and how they work.
Describe how computers change the ways in which people live, work, and communicate using computers.
Finally, list some benefits and potential harmful effects computers may have on society.
The task is assessed from the point of view of how well the research was carried out and how effective their presentation was in terms of grammar, use of active vocabulary, speaking skills.
This assignment is worth 5 points. Points will be awarded as follows:
1 point – language (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation)
1 point – references
1 point – career information (did you answer all the questions)
1 point – creativity, effort and neatness of presentation
1 point – delivery
