I use this 2 page resource for students completing Art courses. After researching potential Art and Design careers, students then create a piece of artwork based on that career. Students then complete the worksheet at the end, stating what career they researched, what artwork they created (with photographic examples), if they found the career interesting and what others they would like to explore. I use this resource at the end of the Art course as a CEIAG (Careers, Education, Information Advice & Guidance) session.

I use this resource for students studying Gaming or Media Studies. It is a worksheet, where students answer a question about staying safe while online gaming before creating a poster demonstrating to others how to stay safe while online gaming.
