Impacts of TNCs

A card sort and written task on the positive and negative aspects of TNCs. There are two versions of the activities, for higher- and lower-ability students.

Students classify the impacts as to whether they are positive and negative.
Students then arrange them into categories such as job creation, job loss, effect on richer/poorer countries, money, environment.

Students complete a scaffolded written task to describe and explain the best and worst impacts of TNCs. They finish by examining whether a boycott of TNCs such as Nike would have a positive or negative effect. A list of key words is provided on the lower-ability resource.
