Technology & Business Education
for Youth
Paul Stewart Consulting has developed the Real World Technology after school program, to provide students with applied learning opportunities to utilize computer technology in real-world scenarios. Goals for student participants include improving academic performance, acquiring proficiency in a variety of software applications and associated computer tools, learning communication skills for teamwork and cooperation, learning practical uses for computer technology, and learning about future career opportunities in a global information age.
The Internet Commerce and Web Development class objectives are for students to learn and/or acquire proficiency in the following: 1) business and web development software, including Microsoft Word, Powerpoint and Excel; Macromedia Dreamweaver and Fireworks; 2) Internet search engines and their use in business marketing; 3) various career roles within business organizations; 4) international business on the Internet, 5) and communicating with compassion and respect to improve teamwork, cooperation, and individual contributions.
These objectives are met in a real-world scenario as students take on the roles of several business careers, including CEO and management support, marketing professionals, and web developers. As teams, the students will prepare business documents and marketing materials utilizing software and digital tools. They will produce organization charts, spreadsheets, business letters, financial statements, marketing materials, and a website.
