Independent Practice (LSI Quadrant III):
Students will take the Hard Skills Versus Soft Skills Quiz; and will participate in discussions about
soft and hard skills; diversity in the work place; safety in the work place; and ethical issues they
may face.
Summary
Review (LSI Quadrants I and IV):
Question: Why are we going over soft skills this week?
Answer: Because they are the hardest skills to teach and measure. However, they can be
the skills that get you the job or into the college you want.
Question: What did you learn from this ePortfolio unit?
Answer: As long as they can explain what/why they think this way it is correct.
Evaluation
Informal Assessment (LSI Quadrant III):
Class discussions.
Formal Assessment (LSI Quadrant III, IV):
Hard Skills Versus Soft Skills Quiz is a major grade. Discussion and assignments on Soft versus
Hard Skills, Diversity in the Work Place, Safety in the Work Place, and Ethical Issues, are daily
grades.
Extension
Extension/Enrichment (LSI Quadrant IV):
If students finish early have them print out everything so that they can start/work on a traditional
print portfolio. These are good to have because some colleges do not “accept” portfolios in the
applications. However, if they go for an interview they can bring it to help spark more conversation
and hopefully get into the college they want or get the job they really want.
