November 23


You wrote your Chapter 10-11 Quiz today. Hopefully, you'll get the results of this quiz next week. This is your last weekend to work on your TNC Dossier Assignment with your partner. This assignment is due next Friday (November 30th).


For most of today's class we watched excerpts from a video called "The People Bomb". I also assigned some homework for Monday: the front side of the Topic B Outline (Part 1). I will be doing a homework check on this.

All that question means is "How did Pepsi expand into the large transnational corporation it is today?" Does that help?

Probably more than that. Have a look at the rubric for this assignment that I sent out, so you have a better idea about expectations.

For the dossier assignment, what does it mean by "demonstrating the expansion of the transnational corporation?" is it the similar as the timeline or like a concept map?
thanks

There's lots of ways of accomplishing this, but one way of doing it, is to have a world map and demonstrate how the transnational corporation expanded its overseas operations over the years. If you do it this way, you are "killing two birds with one stone" as a map is a requirement of the assignment. Another way to do it is to trace the growth of the corporation in written form or in your timeline. Like I said, there's lots of ways of demonstrating this.
