Work, education and the internet
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can describe how the internet can be used in education, work and business.
Key learning points
- The internet can be a good resource for studying, revising and finding job opportunities.
- We can use online tools to complete important tasks like writing a CV.
- Potential employers may search our name online to find out more about us when applying for a job.
- People can use the internet to advertise their businesses.
Keywords
Interactive - technology which can respond to the user
Resource - something we can use to help us
Curriculum Vitae (CV) - a document used when seeking work or education opportunities; it lists your achievements, skills and experience
Employer - the person or business that pays someone to do a job
Common misconception
What we write online is private and others will not be able to see or read this.
Not everything we say online is private, it is important to be mindful of posting online as future employers may look an application up when applying for a job.
Teacher tip
It could be useful to show pupils real examples of online job sites and local adverts.
