Each of the South-Western's seven CD-ROM simulations presents a challenging, interactive workplace experience that helps develop the skills most in-demand by today's employers.
In Developing a Business Plan, teams of entrepreneurs compete for three available storefronts in a local mall. The best and most comprehensive business plans will sign a lease. Users must learn business principles that will help them:
1) choose a store type, name and logo
2) make decisions on marketing strategy, staffing, inventory, and store design and layout
3) use algebra and develop spreadsheets, charts, and graphs to analyze financial data
4) write a business plan and design a formal presentation
