  1. greeting students.
  2. Greetings. Welcome to a new unit in supply chain.
  3. If you are watching this video, that means you have
  4. successfully joined the classroom and have completed the syllabus task.
  5. So congratulations.
  6. If you haven't, please complete the syllabus prior to diving
  7. deeper into the union.
  8. All right, now let's go to the slide show technology
  9. and supply chain.
  10. Essential question.
  11. How does technology influence the supply chain?
  12. Welcome to our new unit.
  13. What are we doing?
  14. Student will integrate media showing how technology affects the supply
  15. chain, use advanced vocabulary words and produce writing.
  16. Discussing the relationship between technology and the supply chain.
  17. Students will also engage in online discussions with other students
  18. throughout the entire unit.
  19. Why are we doing it?
  20. Essential question.
  21. We're doing it to find out.
  22. How does technology influence the global supply chain and specifically
  23. the fashion supply chain?
  24. Right. So in this image, you can really start seeing
  25. some of these different aspects of the supply chain in
  26. the background image.
  27. You can see vom materials being turned into garments being
  28. loaded onto ships, then taken off trucks and put into
  29. inventory, and then eventually getting into the retail store.
  30. Okay, Where is it leading and of unit assessment.
  31. At the end of the unit, students will be able
  32. to compare and contrast two technologies affecting the fashion supply
  33. chain. Students could also choose to make predictions about the
  34. future of the fashion supply chain exciting to technologies that
  35. evidence for your conclusions.
  36. So think on this.
  37. This is the first task for this week, and it's
  38. basically reading the quote and considering whether you agree or
  39. disagree. So the quote goes, Technology is pervasive in today's
  40. supply chain in every possible area.
  41. It enables a truly integrated, visible and efficient supply chain
  42. that benefits from collaboration.
  43. So you could see that I've circled pervasive and that
  44. word basically means found everywhere So you can swap that
  45. on, say, technology is found everywhere in today's supply chains
  46. in every possible area.
  47. Okay, so think on that and figure out if you
  48. agree, or if you disagree with that right, and that's
  49. your task.
  50. One as a classic comment, right?
  51. So basically, the history of supply chains is really the
  52. history of planes, trains and automobiles, all right, but we'll
  53. get to that.
  54. It's also a famous movie, so technology drives change technology
  55. has always been a driving force in bringing changes to
  56. the way society interacts and moves things from one place
  57. to another.
  58. The further you look into the past, the clearer you
  59. can see into the future.
  60. In other words, looking into the past helps us see
  61. better into the future.
  62. So think about that, too, right?
  63. The further you look into the past that clear, you
  64. can see into the future pretty deep.
  65. So the vocabulary word bank is where you are going
  66. to really get a grasp of what we're doing In
  67. this unit level one are words that should be you
  68. should be able to use in conversations.
  69. They're sort of everyday words in the modern age, like
  70. technology skills, these air kind of words that, for the
  71. most part, you know how to use in conversations.
  72. Level two.
  73. You start getting a little more academic in advance, however,
  74. still things you should know how to definitely pronounce.
  75. If you're an English language learner, or even if you
  76. think you know what those words mean, it's important to
  77. maybe look for the definition, which is what you will
  78. probably be doing if you're in the upper grades the
  79. lower grades are doing something a little bit more fun,
  80. which is a word search.
  81. Andi. That's just cause they're cool like that.
  82. Level three words are the most advanced words on they
  83. have to do with specifically the supply chain and technology
  84. that we're gonna be talking about so important that you
  85. master a lot of these vocabulary words, at least three
  86. from each level.
  87. And that will really, really help you out.
  88. All right?
  89. And that's what you're going to stop.
  90. And that's where this video is going to stop.
  91. All right?
  92. We'll get back to the rest of this presentation when
  93. we come back from the break.
  94. All right, good luck and godspeed.
