Teaching and Learning Strategy
1 Put students in small groups. Mixed ability groups may work well here.
2 Give each group a Location Map, the Key and the Business Scenario.
3 Ask students to choose one set of co-ordinates on the map on which to build
the workshop/showroom. Stress the workshop (where the tables are made) and
the showroom (where the tables are displayed for customers to view) must be on the same square as they will be on the same site. The location cannot be on the same square as competitors, customers or the forest.
