 * Purpose of Career and Work Experience ** -


 * Self Awareness - What can we learn about ourselves that will help us in the workplace? **

1) ** Vocabulary ** - In a group come up with the following definitions, explain the difference and provide examples - Job  - Occupation  - Career

2) ** Roles of Women in the workplace ** - What are the typical jobs that women are thought to have in the workplace?

3) ** Roles of Men in the workplace ** - What are the typical jobs that men are thought to have in the workplace?

4) ** Should we consider gender to define our roles? **

5) ** Who are you? ** - We will be creating our portfolios on-line this year. Your job is to keep up with your portfolio time. It is easy to get distracted by Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, Email, Instagram, etc... This is like work. When you are asked to complete a task, you work on that task and that task only. Ms. Rowe will have Sirius on and will accept requests. It isn't your job to be sneaky, it is YOUR JOB to work to the best of your ability.

Wiki pages you will need (some of you already have this part well underway) But your wiki should be for your portfolio purpose only and it should represent who you want to be seen as. The wiki should NOT be your school wiki.

1) // Home page // - This page introduces the person viewing it
 * Pages that are required **

2) // All About Me // - Share pictures and information about yourself that is appropriate for ALL to see. Remember this represents who you want to be seen as. First impressions take 10 seconds to make... This is also real in the digital age.

3) // Employability Skill // s - This is the section that your state what it takes to be a good worker. What are those things people are looking for when they higher? How do YOU fit into this section? Highlight your strengths.

4) // Interview Tips // - This is where you will be sharing those things that are important when interviewing. Whether it be links to web pages, youtube videos, or tips from your own experience.

5) // Resume // - This will be a copy of your resume

6) // Vision Board // - This is the page where you will have a picture of your vision board.

7) // WHMIS certificate // - We are going to be taking the WHIMIS course. This is where you will display your accomplishment

8) // Workplace Safety // - This page is dedicated to educating others about Workplace Safety
