-Researching their product area, including competitors and USPs;

-Creating instructions for users;
-Formulating and presenting a persuasive pitch;

A comprehensive PowerPoint presentation guides students through the project.
There are at least a week’s worth of resources in here, enabling students to fully immerse themselves in the project. I orignally have used this with KS2 and KS3 students, but they could reasonably be adapted for students in KS4.
