In the Beginning...Case Studies
Part of Lesson Plan: 3 Types of Business Structures, Which is Best?
Activity Overview / Details
Student teams work on the remaining 3 stories that are all real stories of what are now, large companies…but their identity is kept a secret in the stories of their early creation and start-ups. (It is interesting to see if any of the students start to figure out the relation of these business scenarios to the 3 treats I started the class out with)
I provide all students a rubric of what is expected in their written recommendations and have them use the rubrics to grade their own product once they complete their first one. I visit their table to let them know if I agree or disagree with their own self-assessment and what I would have them modify to achieve full credit.
