The document outlines a lesson plan for a project where students will work in groups to create a tourism presentation to attract investment. The project follows the format of the TV show "Shark Tank" where entrepreneurs pitch their companies to investors. Students will research a tourist attraction, create promotional materials, and have 7 minutes to present while being evaluated. The lesson is broken into three stages: pre-project planning, project work during class, and a post-project evaluation. The goal is for students to develop speaking, teamwork, and presentation skills through this simulated investment experience.
