PILOT TY Wed ActivityPack for Flip Book (2) - Flipbook - Page 3
Work-related language activities
you can use during Transition Year
work experience
The world of work has changed hugely in the last 20 years. Workplaces in
Ireland are increasingly diverse - workers come from a variety of different
countries and speak languages other than English. When students are on
work experience, they have an opportunity to reflect on this diversity.
As future workers in Ireland, Europe or the wider world, the use of
languages and the interaction with different nationalities and
cultures in the workplace is going to become more common.
This pack of activities will raise awareness among TY students of diversity in the
workplace as well as encourage them to reflect on how important languages
might be in their future careers.
