This is a workbook I used to use with adult learners who were preparing for the Food Safety exam. It could be used as a stand alone resource to raise awareness of food safety issues.
This is a task I use for adult students in an employability and career setting.
Students are put into groups or pairs to assess/evaluate/interrogate other people online profiles using screen-prints of profiles.
Students are asked to consider if they were to choose one of them to approach to add to their LinkedIn Network who would they choose and why.
Rules
• They can only choose one!
• It has to be a group agreed decision
In teams students are asked to look at each profile snapshot and consider
If you were looking to contact someone in this field, arena or environment would you take the time to connect with them?
They may like to consider these aspects below or you can highlight a particular aspect
• Headline and job role • Do they explain what they do • Believability ��� Pictures • Is there enough detail • Spelling• Professionalism• Accomplishments• Experience
We are also interested in who they decide not to connect with as much as who you have connected with and are asked to rank the profiles from 1 to 9
Once completed we will feedback to the room
NOTE!
I have chosen to use real profiles and have included my own for fairness. I chose not to obscure the name and photos on the profiles because
• This information is in the public domain
• There is no contact information available
• Invented profiles wouldn’t look or feel the same
• The photos are critical part of the assessment process when being assessed by an employer
• 3 of the profiles I chose have already been highlighted on other websites/blogs as being good or bad examples
• This activity is being used and discussed in a closed classroom with a group of students not on PC’s and I collect the resource in at the end
However you may choose to use the structure and make up or change some of the profiles, obscure some of the information etc.
