5. Session Plan ‘Jobs & Activities’ Introduction At the beginning it´s important to point out that this session is not just about paid work, but also about jobs and tasks that someone can do for others – their community, their family, their friends. The presentation of a dream job could be a meaningful alternative for younger participants (e.g. school-aged). In the next step learners receive a worksheet where they work out a vital job description of a job that they do, or they would like to do. This worksheet should be prepared by partners and could contain the following questions: O What is my (Dream)Job / Task or how do imagine my job? O What tasks do I perform? Please name at least three tasks. O What tools or objects do I use? O How is my working environment – What does it look like? O What does my workplace look like? O What work clothes do I wear? O Where is my job located? How do I get there? O Do I work indoors or outdoors? O Do I work in a team? O What can be heard in my job? Are there any specific noises or sounds? (if possible a typical sound should be recorded as an audio or videofile) These short posters will then will be put on a pin board and presented briefly.
Photo Report This session will be supported by a prepared Website-Template. Then the group decides which experiences (or dream jobs) will be worked out for the Website. Who wants to present his experiences? Which stories could be interesting for others? Which tasks / Jobs can be easily documented by means of multimedia? etc. In the next step the practical realization of the website plan will be discussed. Again it is recommended to form small groups with clear tasks. Useful questions could be: Which pictures will be taken and by whom? Which sounds could suit the pictures? Who writes the pieces of text? If it is not possible to form small groups, then the whole group decides in favour of a topic, plans the story or photo report together. After that the practical work starts. Ideally pictures are taken on the original locations (where the jobs or activities normally are performed). It is clear that the employer should
