Tutor2U WOW Economics and Business resources


Hi Guys

Mrs Oates got a bit star struck and couldn't bring herself to get a photo with her business & economics hero's so please understand if she is a little light headed today... We will force her into it next year!

Got some really fantastic stuff today which I have shared with one group already for their economics revision. I will put this all onto the student share drive later as well.

I have been set a task by the Y12 group to blog on the following topics so I will do that tomorrow and give you some revision notes to look at over the weekend. Expect to be tested on them come Sunday and Medis is using the hang man resource we got from Tutor2U to flip the classroom and lead the starter!

Medis I am excited!

  • Quality Management & TQM
  • Marketing Objectives
  • Stock Control
  • Branding/Culture
  • Taylor et al.,
  • Org Structures (linked to leadership styles)

Mr Oates' Cover Lesson

Hi Guys

Apologies for the late notice the Tutor2U WOW Economics course switched days and I was supposed to be going Wednesday but I am going in today instead. I promise to share any Economics resources I steal from the training day.

Your task today is to really work together to answer the areas that you were all unsure on whilst going through the 3 mock papers. Consider Decentralisation, Marketing Objectives and so on.

Work as a team by splitting up the areas you are unsure on. Try to pick an area you are somewhat confident on so you can explain this to members of the group. Remember there is no point in keeping quiet about being unsure at this stage and we should be patient when trying to explain elements to people as teaching helps us embed knowledge much better.

When I come back I will quiz you on what you did and I want to see evidence. I also want to see the completed cash-flows and at least one of the 8 markers you have rewritten to get the full 8 marks. Dont pick the stupid one shown int he last paper before I speak to the exam board.

Use Tutor2U as your best source, oddly i am with them tomorrow so I will let you know how awesome it is to see lord sutch again...
