Introduction
This unit project is to apply all what you have learned about risk by creating a wiki of some of the riskiest jobs in the world. Details using text, images, audio and video can be put in there.
Wikis are useful online database and tools for communicating and working on a project with other people. They allow us to freely create and edit Web page content.
Task
Each group will be working on the list of some of the riskiest jobs in the world. A selection of four or five jobs should be enough.
Please put some information why they are risky and what workers can do to reduce the risks. The class could then vote for which they think is the riskiest job.
Process
These are five suggested steps for the process:
1. Put yourself in a group of three.
2. Make a list of three riskiest jobs in the world. So each of you researches one of the jobs.
