Edexcel ALevel Business Theme 4 workbooks

These Theme 4 workbooks provide structured activities for A Level Business students, covering 4.1 Globalisation, 4.2 Global Markets & Business Expansion, 4.3 Global Marketing, and 4.4 Global Industries & MNCs.

Aligned to the Edexcel A Level Business specification, each workbook includes:

• RAG‑rating grid for confidence tracking
• “Define” keyword lists – Students record definitions of key terms such as GDP, emerging economies, push/pull factors, outsourcing, exchange rates, and ethnocentric/geocentric/polycentric marketing approaches
• “Give me three…” questions – Recall‑focused prompts asking for examples, reasons, impacts, features or benefits
• “What is…?” questions – Short conceptual checks clarifying differences, relationships and key ideas within the theme (e.g. the link between FDI and business growth; differences between global marketing approaches)
• “How might…?” analytical tasks – Prompts encouraging students to apply knowledge and develop chains of reasoning, such as:
  * How economic growth shapes business opportunities
  * How exchange rate movements affect competitiveness
  * How cultural differences influence global marketing decisions
• Exam practice sections – Several pages of extended‑answer space, including self‑assessment checklists and target‑setting boxes.

The activities are structured to benefit learners at every level, combining straightforward knowledge‑building questions with more demanding analytical tasks that extend higher‑level students.

Consistent format across all themes
The layout and activity structure are identical across 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, making the set straightforward to use for:

• Classroom lessons
• Independent study
• Homework
• Revision sessions

Resources are supplied as PDFs for ease of access but are best printed for student use.
