My current job is "Transition Specialist" for a virtual academy which is a public charter school which means the students do not "go" to school - they log in to school. The homework assignment for the class that I have been enrolled in was to find videos that I can use in my virtual lessons that pertain to my job and how I would use them. Here it is...
Here are some great videos that I found for my profession as Transition Specialist:
1. Connecting High School to College and Career | Edutopia
http://www.edutopia.org/stw-career-technical-education-overview-video
This would be used to show my students that most schools are requiring "extra" work to get students ready for post-secondary life and how they are doing it. Grades 9 - 12
2. Summer Internships
http://www.5min.com/Video/Summer-Internships-279018974
This is GREAT for showing students how to get an internship and explains why it is important. I would love to show this to all of my Juniors and Seniors
3. Most Common Interview Questions
http://www.videojug.com/film/the-most-common-job-interview-questions
Another GREAT video for students to get an idea of what they will be asked before setting out on their first job interview. I would show this to students Grades 10 - 12
4. How to Choose the Right Career (UK)
http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-choose-the-right-career
This would be great for Grades 9 - 12. It gives the students the ideas to start brainstorming if they have not determined a career yet.
5. Choosing a Career (US)
http://www.videojug.com/interview/choosing-a-career
This is for Grades 9 - 12. Gives some other great information for students to think about when determining what their skills are for career determination. Makes the determination between just getting a job and finding a career that is an extension of who they are with research ideas
6. How to Choose the Right College
This was done by a young woman where she shows where to find information but also what to think about when making the decision. Grades 9 - 12 would benefit from this.
This is the magazine she refers to: http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges
7. Dorm Room Tours - great for Grades 11 - 12 to help them decide if "going away" to school would be a good option for them:
Girl's Dorm Tour:
Boys' Dorm Tour:
Here's a University's Apartment tour:
