A main emphasis the Verso hiring department and department heads stressed was that students need to be well prepared for an interview. The interview will determine if they are hired. Having proper interview etiquette will give students an opportunity to excel during the interview process and provide the confidence required to succeed during an interview.

Most people don’t realize that manufacturing is all around them and that almost everything they use is manufactured. Students will be shown ores, steel billets, forged steel, and finished steel parts. Students will learn about how raw materials are mined and then transported from factory to factory in order to be turned into the products that are all around us.

Students will collaborate in small groups to come up with a list of careers within the hospital setting. Lists will be shared out as a class, with each student then choosing one job with which to create a Google slide presentation. Ideally, this would follow the How to Become a Clinical Laboratory Scientist lesson plan found in WISELearn.

This lesson emphasizes the importance of properly answering job interview questions and better prepares the students for mock interviews.

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” How many times does a young adult get asked this question? This is an important decision and definitely not an easy one. This lesson (semester project) allows the student to take a closer look at what they might enjoy as a career or more importantly – what they might discover isn’t what they want in a job!

Students will brainstorm a list of careers/jobs that may be available at a papermill. From that list they will then take 1 of those jobs and do an in depth study of one of those potential jobs/careers.

A specific skill that was shared by the Laboratory Scientist during the teacher externship experience at HSHS St. Clare Memorial Hospital was the ability to use a bulb pipette accurately. In this lesson, students will gain experience in problem solving and teamwork as they practice reading graduated marks on the side of a pipette and filling a pipette to several different requested levels.

A specific skill that was shared by the respiratory therapist during the teacher externship experience at HSHS St. Clare Memorial Hospital was the ability to read a Broselow Pediatric Reference Tape accurately in an emergency situation. In this lesson, students will gain experience in problem solving and teamwork as they practice using a Broselow Pediatric Reference Tape to measure a variety of “patients” and then apply that measurement correctly when answering associated questions.

In this lesson, students will identify careers at local businesses. By communicating with area employers and identifying potential careers, students could possibly find a career they identify with and could pursue as a career path. This would help both students with career choices and local businesses with possible new employees.

This is a unit about the design and manufacturing of a chair consisting of three lessons. First, students will research the stylistic trends throughout history by exploring a slide show presentation and viewing the Art of Seating from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Jacksonville, Florida. Students will choose a chair from this collection to use as inspiration. They will analyze the style, elements and principles of the design and participate in a discussion on form vs. function. A one-page written paper will be due at the end of this lesson.

Next, students will be tasked with creating an original 2-dimensional design of a chair. Students will have the option of drawing or using Google Sketchup for the design process which will extend over 2 days. The students will continue to be led in discussions related to innovation, form vs. function and other vocabulary will be introduced. Once the designs have been completed, students will write an artist statement for their display.

Lastly, students will learn about the KI company in Bonduel Wisconsin and the process of Lean Manufacturing, particularly cost effectiveness, standard work instructions and quality checks/internal audit. Students will be assigned to work in groups; they will choose one chair design from a group member. Student groups will create a list of materials needed to create the chair and will come up with a list of instructions on how to assemble it. Students will assign a cost value to each material used in the chair design and how much of the material is used. They will figure out the amount of time and resources it would take to create the chair such as wage, manpower, and tools needed. Students will create a chart with this information as they discover what it takes to go from the process of creating design to the manufacturing of the product. Students will then fill out an “internal Audit/quality check” form as their self assessment and reflection of their work and participation in this unit.

This lesson is based on observations of the marketing department at Reinhart Food Service. As a unit for Sports Literature class, students will complete a simulation to market and present a product using advertising techniques, digital media, writing and speaking skills. In groups of three to four students, each team with choose a product or aspect of a sport to market. Some examples include a new sporting goods store, online vendor, food product like a protein powder, drink or granola bar, themed restaurant, sports equipment. (Or use your imagination!) The product may be a one-of-a-kind-invention or an improvement on or variation of a current product. Students will learn advertising techniques, discuss morals in advertising, and practice their desktop publishing skills.

Marketing teams will consider their target audience and how they want to reach that audience. They will create an advertising plan and present their products, print, radio and television advertisements to the class.

Students will research various metal alloys used to make automobile products that they use in their everyday life and report their findings on a poster board and collaborate on a discussion board.

Ductile iron, also called spheroidal graphite iron, is a type of graphite-rich cast iron. Due to the nodular graphite inclusions, ductile iron has a larger impact and is stress resistance, thus it is used for automobile parts.

Students will solve percent composition problems after learning about the process of making ductile iron at Waupaca Foundry.

Overview / Description: Students will work in small groups and prepare an appropriate work readiness warmup program based on a particular company that they are assigned.

The Pipe Bender lesson allows students to review measurement. In speaking with those in working in the shipyard, they emphasized the important skills of measurement, system of measurement conversion, and diagram reading.
