Introducing just a few of the teaching & learning resources provided to colleagues attending WOW! Business International...

An activity that can be used to illustrate the concept of opportunity cost as well as developing the all-important skill of evaluation. Students are presented with a number of tough real life choices to make. Which option will they choose and why?

A challenging card game used to teach profit and loss accounts. Students, working in groups need to piece together the mystery and work out if the business makes a profit or loss

An engaging, kinaesthetic activity where students take on the role of production operatives in a factory making bookmarks. Can they work as a team and re-design their job roles to make the whole process more efficient?

A challenging ranking activity with a twist. Students are presented with 10 business decisions and they need to rank them in order (most ethical to least ethical). Once they have justified their reasoning they then need to play the role of Devil’s advocate and argue why the least ethical decision is morally sound

A kinaesthetic group activity for teaching organisational structures. Each student represents a member of the Smith family and need to organise themselves in a ‘human’ family tree. The activity is developed further to incorporate organisational structures

Stakeholder Island is a highly visual activity which allows students to investigate by themselves different businesses and to consider what groups in society would be directly/indirectly impacted by that business being in existence.

Talking Twosomes is a whole class activity that is excellent for measuring progress within a business studies lesson. It can be used as a plenary activity at the end of the lesson or as a mini plenary during the lesson. Talking Twosomes can also be used at the start of a lesson to re-cap on prior learning.

A superb structured activity for students to explore the challenges of workforce planning! Working in pairs, students have around 30 minutes

WOW! Business International - the resource-packed CPD course for all teachers of GCSE, A Level & IB Business

Hexagonal Analysis is a powerful activity that develops a number of higher order skills. Using hexagons allows students to demonstrate how certain elements within a business studies topic relate to each other and therefore show connections between them developing (amongst others) the higher order skill of analysis.

This interactive activity helps improve evaluation skills through providing a structured use of ‘connective’ words and phrases that can be applied to a question.

This activity encourages students to think about whether a business should accept a non-standard order. This exercise builds on skills of application, draws on knowledge of capacity utilisation and encourages students to use financial calculations to support their decisions.

A bellwork activity used for when students first enter the class and involves students being presented with a number of business studies key words that have been ‘chopped’ into 2 or 3 sections. Can also be used in several ways and is also a useful teaching and learning strategy to help embed literacy into business lessons.

This activity aims to get students thinking about how businesses make location decisions. The activity touches upon issues such as bulk increasing products and fixed and variable costs, making it a suitable for both AS and A2 students. The activity can also be easily adapted for GCSE.
