week 4 observations
On this particular day I observed another class that were preparing resume samples to present to the principle, assistant principle and teacher in front of the class. Teh objective was for the students in three separate classes to "fight it out" to see who could get a job giving an interview and presentation scenario. The students were graded on resume clarity, powerpoint presentation illustrating what the industry that the pick does and how they can contribute to that organization or industry. The students also recieved points for their dress, clarity of thought and interview presence. This project was very interesting and I was surprisingly impressed with how well the students responded to the requirements, they did really well.

What grade were these students in? I'm just curious b/c it seems as if there are plenty of assignments that relate to their preparation for the future. Thus far, you have mentioned how students listened to a speaker from a technical school, did presentations about their future careers, and prepared for resume writing.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in hearing more about what you think you might include in your own teaching practice. What have you learned so far that you might integrate into your curriculum and pedagogy?
