Project description

(not the US nor the companys headquarters country) and must communicate your final choice to me via email by the end of Week 4. Course participants will need to post a
presentation of their paper in Power Point in the Bb Learn Assignments area .
In addition to the paper and presentation, you are required to submit the following:
– An individual evaluation of three presentations other than your own. The focus of your comments should be on the feasibility of the business idea (are you
convinced?) and overall professionalism of the presentation. I will provide more details of this requirement and an evaluation form that you will use later in the
term.
The maximum number of slides for the presentation is 16. The presentation and the written paper account for 10 percent and 10 percent of your course grade,
respectively. Your commentary on the other groups will be weighted 5% of the course grade.

Great data for final term projects – from Emily Missner, LCOB librarian
Posted on: Sunday, September 28, 2014 8:10:23 AM EDT
From Emily Missner, LeBow College librarian- There’s no question about it: the World Bank’s got some great data. For example, the World Bank Development Indicators are
essential to so many economics and international business classes. If you haven’t used them yet, I bet you will soon. But there’s only one thing better than great
data: FREE great data! The World Bank has opened up its fantastic data sets for everyone. Along with the World Development Indicators, there are 18 more sets of data
to peruse and use, ranging from Millennium Development Indicators to the Doing Business Database, from Enterprise Surveys to Gender Statistics. Most of the data sets
can be downloaded in a variety of formats including excel, xml, and csv. If you’re interested in economics or international business, this is certainly a resource you
should bookmark. We’ve also got it in our catalog.
A subset of the World Bank Indicators can also accessed via Google Public Data. It’s the same data, but it’s sort of fun to see it graphically displayed in different
ways. I especially like the map option.
