Career Presentation in Google Classroom

Career Presentation

This is the big presentation I have been talking about since the beginning of the semester. Create a power point or slide for your the one career you decided on. The presentation must be aimed at 5-10 minutes. Minimum of size 14 font. No pictures behind text. Bullet points are your friend. The presentation should include:

Intro (name, career)
Job Description (tasks, environment, salary, demand %, sacrifices, etc.)
Accurate Pathway (state licensing, background checks, certifications, education, and what schools are good for that major)
Your compatibility (Disc survey, work values survey, career cruising, personality tests,
budget summary [please include a summary of the budget])
Closing (what you learned, would you choose this career? questions)

Please use your career interest survey or career cruising and or your workbook for all the information related to the presentation. You already did the research! Just put it on a slide.

For the video

Students shall record a video of themselves presenting the power point. Use your phone to record while standing in front of a computer presenting each slide. I must be able to see you and the screen together. I included a photo of a good distance as an example.Don't worry if the screen for your slide is small in the video, I'll have your slide open at the same time as watching your video. Make sure you speak loud enough for me to hear.

To turn in your presentation:

Upload file into student google drive (not your personal!) and turn in video into google classroom.

Submit both slide and video
