of a material). What is augmented reality? (technology that combines a person’s view of the real world with computer-generated images to improve the sensory perception of the user). Then, organize the class into pairs and give them some time to ask questions about these three jobs or professions. You may suggest that they check Wh- question words on page 115 in their books so they may use them to write their questions. Monitor while pairs work to provide any help they may need and check by asking them to read their questions aloud. Differentiated Instruction For this activity, you could use the Open-ended Question Strategy if you consider it necessary to help students write the questions that will guide their reading/research. Say the first part of the questions provided as possible answers in this guide and encourage students to finish them. 2. Read the title of the text and anticipate its content. 110 You may organize the class into pairs. Read the title aloud and give pairs some time to discuss what kind of information they think they will find in the text. To check how they anticipate the content, ask: Which type of information do you think this text includes? Elicit answers from different pairs. Finally, have students identify the Glossary word in this activity and tell them to go to page 110 to read its definition. 3. Listen and read the article. Underline the information that may answer your questions. For homework, research the information that you are missing. 29 You may suggest students to will continue working in pairs to assess which type of information is presently available and which needs to be broadened. Tell them to reread the questions they wrote in Activity 1. Then, have them listen and read the text from Activity 2 to find information that may answer any of the questions; when they find it, they should underline it. Finally, they should go back to their questions to check if any of them was not answered; in that case, they should research the answer for homework and bring notes. Monitor while pairs work to check the procedure they are following to assess the information and give them feedback.

Jobs That Already Exist and Will Be Very Useful in the Future
As society is changing very quickly, jobs and professions must adapt and evolve. Here are some professions that are already available and will be very helpful in the future.
Drone Pilot Drones are having more and more commercial uses such as delivering packages. It is expected that they will be used for other things like removing waste, monitoring air pollution levels, or performing tasks in high places that are hard to reach. So, drone pilots will be needed to control them.
3D Printing Technician 3D printing is now being used to manufacture things such as tools, food, clothing, and even medical implants. It is expected that in the future every home and business could have 3D printers . Therefore, technicians who specialize in maintaining them will probably have great job opportunities.
Augmented Reality Developer The entertainment industry has gained success by developing ways to project computer- generated images onto a person’s view of the real world to enhance it. Consequently, augmented reality developers will continue to be needed to create new content for this technology.

Teaching Guidelines
• Ask questions about jobs or professions. • Read title and anticipate content. • Assess which type of information is presently available and which needs to be broadened. Development What is the importance of paraphrasing the information we research? Write the question on the board and encourage them to answer using previous knowledge. 1. With your partner, look at the poster and ask questions about the information contained in it. You may draw students’ attention to the poster and ask one volunteer to read the information included on it. To make sure students understand what these jobs are, ask: What is a drone? (an aircraft that is controlled by someone on the ground). What is 3D printing? (the process of creating a solid object from a digital model by adding many successive thin layers
