THE FUTURE OF WORK

My Reaction:

While watching this video, I had many different reactions, but the three I choose to write about are as following: 

1. Surprised- My initial reaction was to be surprised. You don't really realize how quickly technology is expanding and more jobs are being produced until the numbers are right before your eyes.

2. Overwhelmed- As I continued watching the video I became more and more overwhelmed. Just how quickly is the "Future of Work" going to come about? So many trends are to come, and in such little time. While this is certainly a good thing, new things always take some time to adapt to.

3. Excited- The end of this video left me feeling quite excited. I can't wait to see what is in store for us, and I'm thrilled to see what will be available when it is my turn to become a teacher. Good things are yet to come.

How have my educational experiences prepared me for the future of work?

     While in high school, I had access to all kinds of computers, iPads, etc. I believe that after using these pieces of technology, I will be well prepared for the future of work. Not only did the use of these computers contribute to the knowledge I have today, the computer programs were also a big part of the education process. As I work my way through college I will continue to use computers, tablets, programs, and many other forms of media to keep me up to date and ready for the Future of Work.

Above is a picture of what I think schooling will be like in the near future. I predict that children will be using tablets so they will have endless information at their fingertips.
