Planspiel: Der Betrieb

The subject of economics is often considered unattractive by students, even though understanding economic relationships is immensely important for them in a complex working world. This volume practically explores economic thinking and action through a fictional company called "REDBLU." Students learn about all the important business processes involved in developing a new skateboard model, calculating sales, producing the skateboards, and ultimately bringing them to market. They also learn how to search for employees and how to handle conflicts. All aspects related to administration, production, and sales are addressed through action-oriented tasks. In this way, students learn to think economically and discover how exciting economics can be.
