It is not intended to each you everything, or be particularly advanced - just to get new users up and running. This was written a couple of years ago but is still valid!

GCSE Business Revision Game (Edexcel 5BS01)

(5)
A PowerPoint based quiz. Click on the number to select a random question (based on past papers) - once finished, click on the man and you come back to the number board to go again (the already chosen numbers fade out). Simple. You can use this as one at a time "pick a number challenge"; "teams challenge" etc... All slides can be edited to change the questions - you can add what ever you like; as long as the number board and man are not deleted you can put what ever you like on the slides. Perhaps make the colours relevant to more and less able students, or for different sub modules within the course. The options are boundless. Feel free to use and modify as you see fit.
A simple little Break-Even calculator

A simple little Break-Even calculator

(0)
Exactly as the title says. This simple Excel spreadsheet allows a student to plug in some fixed costs, variable costs and a selling price to see what the breakeven level of output would be. Use it as a demonstration to show what happens in real time if costs / revenues change, or as a tool to support students in analysing break even where performing the calcualations is not necessary. The first tab is an example (as seen in the image) with explanations/instructions that teachers/students can refer to. The second tab is a fill-in sheet to build your own! Oh, the example tab (as per the image) is locked to try to stop students accidentally breaking it - but there is no password!

AS/A2 Business Writing Frame

(0)
A simple framework structure for student to follow which outlines the structure required for differing types of question. The resource can be adapted for other subjects too, the example here is used for AO1 - Knowledge; AO2 - Application; AO3 - Analysis and AO4 - Evaluation. The number of arguments may be developed for example for a 18 or 34 mark question - but the basic structure stays the same.
Student-Led Self Evalution & Target Setting Form
jjd.turnerjjd.turner

Student-Led Self Evalution & Target Setting Form

(1)
A useful assessment and reflection tool, that comes in three parts. (The example is for Business but it will work with any AO led assessment) After an extended piece of writing / assessment, students immediately offer a rating on how well they were anle to access the AO's that were assessed. They can then add a comment to support this. This is actually very infomrative before you mark the piece, as you get an insight into how the student found it and how they self-assess their performance to be. The second section (note the smallest) allows a teacher mark (broken down by AO if you want) and simple comment - NOT a target. The third section is for the student to reflect on their progress inlight of your comment and the marked piece and then to set themselves SMART targets of how they can improve. This section also allows a tick to show whether they have acheived it (an OfSted pleaser for progress over time).
