Mobile Workshop

Teacher Guide

Help your students turn a day of discovery into a next step. Here’s your checklist for before, during, and after the Mobile Workshop visit.

Before the visit

Complete the pre visit survey. Have every participating student fill out the survey before the workshop arrives.
Confirm the plan. Confirm arrival, parking, group sizes, and rotation times with your workshop contact.
Choose your student MVPs. Select 3–4 students who can help throughout the day. Confirm their early orientation time with the workshop team.
Prepare your students. Invite students to bring a career question. Discuss any access or support needs with the workshop team.

Test both survey links on a school device ahead of time. If blocked, contact your school’s technology team and workshop contact.

Day of the visit

Check in with the workshop team. Have your school contact available and confirm where student groups should gather.
Follow your rotation schedule. Bring groups at their assigned times and provide the teacher supervision agreed with the team.
Encourage exploration. Help students ask questions, try new experiences, and notice what interests them.

After the visit

Complete the post visit survey. Give every participating student time to fill out the survey after the workshop visit.
Reflect together. Ask students: “What did you try that you would like to learn more about?”
Keep the discovery going. Encourage students to sign up for Join the Movement for more information about technical careers and local opportunities.
Help them take a next step. Explore Florida technical careers together or connect students with their school counselor.
