The Profit Lesson Plans


Introduction

The following lessons are based on my teaching philosophy that video can provide a common multimodal experience that can be the basis of discussion.  Questions 1-3 are more concrete and apply the People, Process and Product system to a particular TV episode. The more abstract SWOT and PEST analysis systems are then applied to a particular TV episode.
