potential in A2 marketing lesson
Posted: Tue Jul 13, 2010 12:36 pm
hello
ive just been teaching advnaced marketing which is an A2 topic. its all about extrapolating data in order to try to predict trends in the future etc. the whole unit is centred around analysing markets. i was just thinking it would be great if for product sales the game kind of;
(1) broked sales down into monthly figures
(2) lets you compare products together to see if they have correlation
if the game could let you do this would make it perfect for this unit, as the students could try to predict what they reckon would happen and play the game and see if they predicted right or not (so it would then bring in the ideas of external factors)
this is just my idea for one unit. im planning on trying to introduce the game alot as i think its perfect! well done for making it.
sorry for spelling mistakes writing this in my busy lunch hour
