This project was created as an assignment in Planning Interactive Curriculum Connections, an online class offered by Berrien RESA and taught by Janine Lim.
Description: This project is designed for high school students who are enrolled in Business Management. Each class will need to divide into groups of 4 or 5. Each group needs to decide on a country where they would like to do business. The groups then need to research cultures and customs of that country. After research is complete, each group needs to come up with a skit or presentation of some kind that lasts 5-10 minutes to present their findings. The findings will then be presented to each class through a 90-minute video conference. Allow the students to see if they can guess which country is being represented.
