Today we will be viewing the video "Technology In The Workplace". When you are finished we will discuss the video and how technology has changed the way we work. I will pass out random examples of industries that are effected by changing technology. Your task is to identify a specific technology in your field and send me the link by email. Explain in the body of your email what the technology is, how you found it, and how it has changed over the last 20-40 years. Be creative and specific.
In addition to the link and explanation above, you will also have to take the technology survey below in class. If you are not in class the day we do this, please copy and paste the survey below into an email.il. Answer the questions on the survey as honestly and completely as you can.
Finally, please find and paste the links to three (3) different jobs in your industry in the email. Specifically note the type of technology someone who applies for these jobs need to know about, or be proficient at. Once you have read them, you should be able to create (wow, actually make one up) a Help Wanted Advertisement for a new job in your industry. Be specific and use the format below. Good Luck!!
