Step 2
• Analyze the case study (e.g. presentation per chapter of unit)

Step 3
• Activities in class

Step 4
• Quizzes – Wrap up

Engage – Improve – Save time

In class – 7 TIPS
1. Less talking from you more from them!
2. Questions that will generate discussion
3. Revision quizzes & questions
4. Activities - Creative activities
5. Most work to be done in class rather as a homework as they are
struggling with deadlines
6. Avoid giving all the material together at this point
7. Mock exam before study leave

•Make sure they have read at least ONCE

the case study!
•External environment (STEEPLE)
•Internal environment (SWOT)
•Key terms
•Stakeholders
THE BASICS - example
Organize your work in a
way that helps all students

- Why per Unit???

- Other ideas?
Organize – example presentation
Questions that link the case study with the
syllabus (different levels)
Activities that link the case study with the
syllabus
Creative activities for the class
• Posters (e.g. timeline)
• Team Mind maps (e.g. for advantages &
disadvantages)
• Role playing (e.g. Management team
meeting)
• Projects (e.g. research on artificial
intelligence)
• Chocolate paper (e.g. for leadership)
• Other ideas?
Revise-revise-revise!
• Quizzes (if they are auto-marked
and you get a class report even
better!)
• Advantages-Disadvantages
• Business tools (Apply per Unit and
altogether)
Quizzes
Revise-revise-revise!
• EXAM’S INSTRUCTIONS
• COMMAND TERMS!
• SECTION C FOR HL (Assessment criteria)!
• MOCK EXAM!
• GIVE OUT ALL RESOURCES JUST BEFORE STUDY LEAVE!
• TIP: QUIZZES CAN HELP OVER STUDY PERIOD
 Paper 1 actual exams!
• A lot of HR
• No much information on finance (Unit 3)
• No much information on marketing (Unit 4) due to lack of plan
• A lot of operations management implied (Unit 5)
• Too long on history
• Appendices:
• Appendix 1 (can generate a lot of questions)
• Appendix 2 (for Location and expansion)

• Any comments?
• Let’s brainstorm after in zoom live
 Paper 1 actual exams!

• SECTION A could be common for SL&HL (remind them that they

answer 2/3 questions)
• SECTION B additional material for a decision and calculations are
needed (e.g. the new production line for aluminum bottles)
Note: For HL they usually have questions form the extension chapters
• SECTION C (HL) additional material for a decision and some
calculations could help (e.g. comparison between two locations for
the new facility) - Tip: It is similar to the Section C of Paper 2 except
the CUEGIS – Application of tools/theories + Stakeholders!
 Thank you!
• Let’s meet online and brainstorm!!!
