Phase+2

Why should a technology-based method be used? It will allow students the opportunity to work based on their individual interests, and give them the most up-to date information. As TIP suggest in phase 2: a technology-based method will be used when we see the relative advantage. In this case, as technology changes, so do careers. This will help prepare students for careers that are more technology-driven.
 * Phase 2: Determine Relative Advantage**

Answer the following questions:

What problem would your team like to address? We would like to address the issue of students becoming more aware of what careers are out there and what skills, education, and outlook that are required for the careers. Students will also discover materials required when applying for specific jobs. We hope that this will also help improve employment-related reading and writing skills.

Don’t focus on technologies rather determine what you want to address in your instruction… Look for evidence that you need the instruction. Does a technology-based method offer a solution with sufficient relative advantages? Estimate the impact Only use technology if there is an advantage to using it to address your instructional problem. Consider the required effort and expense: Currently students are not required to take courses that provide instruction in vocational skills. Technology-based instruction for our lesson would provide many advantages to students and teachers. Our lesson would require some classes to relocated to the computer lab. The lab must be reserved, therefore requiring advanced planning.
