Coca-Cola- MNC- SU 21-23

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Continuing with the development preparation. Currently at this part in the specification.

Know and understand how globalisation both helps and hinders development with reference to one case study from an LEDC or NIC.

So I’ve decided to look at globalisation through Coca-Cola and its activities in India, also gave me a chance to adapt some old pilot work.

I’m also going to use the Mark Thomas Dispatches documentary on Coca-Cola, his follow-up book ‘Belching Out the Devil’ has several chapters related to India, worth a read.

I’ve created the PowerPoint above, an associated worksheet and a classification exercise.

CAMFED- SU 18-20

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

I’ve been working on some development work again and came across the excellent work of NGO CAMFED. I’m going to use it as a case study of how the development gap can be reduced.

There is also an excellent YouTube channel containing videos of the charities work.

I’m not yet happy with the resources, but these ideas develop over time.
