Film Clips On Skills Needed In The World Of Work
As part of the Economic Well-being and Financial Capability curriculum, pupils learn to identify the qualities, skills and attitudes that are required in the world of work. They are encouraged to develop these so their chances of employability are maximised. This website provides a series of film clips on skills that are important in the context of employment. These films focus on a range of areas. For example, the importance of eye contact and how to use it effectively.
There are clips related to motivating others and ways of communicating with others who are reluctant to communicate back. There are useful transcripts of some of the films provided. The tips they give could be used to support pupils in putting the skills into practice within the classroom setting or in enterprising projects within the curriculum. The film clips can also stimulate discussion in terms of whether pupils agree with what they see and hear.
