What do teachers say about this resource? (5856)

Very user-friendly and easy to use, especially the Word version which we can incorporate into our teaching materials. The case studies are clear and concise but with sufficient depth to stretch student.

It helps [students] contexualise the theory. Many materials e.g. news articles can be excessively complex or over-long.

I would strongly recommend it to help speed up effective lesson planning

What do teachers say about this resource? (5853)

Very comprehensive. The course is new for my centre and therefore the resource was extremely useful to support the planning of the course... Range of activities. Comprehensive text and activities... Good resource to support independent study. Could use resource for whole year to support class notes/activities. Students could each have their own copy and annotate to support their revision and private study.

J Whatford, Head of Business & Economics, Independent Reviewer

I like the fact that it fully covers all the themes from the specification and is concise as a revision aid for students... it's concise and broken down for the students... I also like that there are end of topic questions for students to assess their learning.

R Brooke, Head of Business & Peer Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (5855)

I really liked this resource... well written and clearly structured... it covered all the areas and made great use of examples, particularly numerical examples. I really liked the sections ‘how to get an A grade’ I thought this would help stretch students... I think it is really helpful as a companion for students and gives clear examples for them to follow. It also gets to the point quite quickly and gives students the essence of the theory... good match to the specification, covering all the important theoretical concepts.

C Richards, Business Teacher & Independent Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (5854)

The resource presents the concepts in an easy to follow progression from elementary business terms to more complex economic terms... Through examples is shows how these concepts can be applied and how they relate to business activities. It also shows the relationship between Business and Economics... It uses diagrams and examples to enhance the learning experience is an effective aid to the learning experience... The resource presents key concepts about business and economics while showing how the two topics are interrelated. It shows how business activities are affected by macroeconomic variables.
