This lesson plan was created for developing a resume while in the Careers Unit. This lesson will help students develop a current resume. This is for a high school marketing class (grades 10-12). The technology being used is laptops with Microsoft Office XP. Students will be using Word, PowerPoint and the Internet. They will be typing up a current resume in addition to learning about the different parts of the resume. By the end of this unit students will have a current resume that they will have to use for immediate use. ====== 1.K.3 The teacher relates his/her disciplinary knowledge to other subject areas. As a business and marketing teacher I know the importance of incorporating proper English skills into document formatting. Therefore, in this unit lesson plan I stressed the point that most employers will not call for an interview if there are any spelling or grammar errors. 1.S.1 The teacher effectively uses multiple representations and explanations of disciplinary concepts that capture key ideas and links them to students’ prior understandings. In addition to using a PowerPoint presentation the students were also instructed to go out to different websites to look at current resume formats and current examples. Then to bring it all together the students created a current resume for themselves. 1.D.1 The teacher realizes that subject matter knowledge is not a fixed body of facts but is complex and ever evolving. S/he seeks to keep abreast of new ideas and understandings in the field. With the business world evolving and the poor economic situation, resumes have changed from what they were in years past. Therefore, I have incorporated the current trends from the business world to ensure that the students were creating a current resume that so they can be competitive.
