Project.

Students will do casual research/analysis on up-to-date RETAILING news/trends.   

For your 10 to 15-minute-long presentation, select a relevant topic, news, trend, concept, or theory which is related to today’s retailing. In the meantime, please make sure that you have quality questions for a class discussion on your topic. I do not want you to deliver the news only. Submit your PowerPoint presentation PRIOR TO CLASS TIME.
 

there should atleast one video in presentation.

I’ll need 8 power point presentation slides and 3 word pages regarding the slides.
