Using Chucklevision to Teach Business
8th May 2011
Yesterday, something momentus happened in the Prior household. My youngest daughter really ‘came of age’ and decided to move up to CBBC from CBEEBIES. This meant that I could now watch a more ‘adult’ range of childrens TV shows, such as Scooby Doo and Chucklevision. I was tweeting about this with Graham Carter and it reminded me of a classic Chucklevision episode which I use to teach pricing to GCSE students.
This brilliant video clip which comes in at a student friendly 6 minutes and 47 seconds is called ‘I Scream Men’, and involves Paul and Barry running a small Ice Cream Stall. The video clip covers promotion, location and pricing. In order to respond to ‘Slackinos’, Paul and Barry engage in a price war without any real thought for their costs.
Brilliant!
To me, to you, to me, to you…............
