Up and Coming

I am busy at the moment preparing a book of case studies: with 100 brand new case studies. 50 of the cases are aimed at AS level and the other 50 aimed at A2 level.

The cases are being specially prepared for this book: they have appeared nowhere else. Many of them are based on up to the minute news stories so that users will still be able to relate to them and find up to date references in the newspapers and on the web. Some of them, especially the accounting and arithmetical ones, are again specially designed but come from my own fertile imagination and experience.

Every page is self contained on one page of A4 and is full formatted ready to print out or copy. I am aiming at covering as wide a range of topics as possible to comply with all A Level Business Studies Specifications. Of course, the cases could be used for GCSE level in many cases as well as for the International Baccalaureat and even first year introductory undergraduate.

There will be samples on the web site before too long and in addition to the cases there will be

Top tips for sitting a case study exam
Top tips for Revision
Weighting of the questions (how many marks = how long to spend on a question)
Each question identified by level (AS or A2) with all topics and sub topics listed
For subscribers there will be an interactive web page where all the levels and topics will be selectable via a database so that subscribers can enter the topic and level and find out which cases cover them
And more

Write to me now at info@oxbow.org.uk to register your interest and I will send you a reminder when the book is ready ... around the end of next week.
