Congratulations! You have successfully chosen your Extra Credit movie.

Step 1:  Watch the movie, rent the movie on video tape or DVD.  The movie you've chosen should depict one or more aspects of the business world (e.g. Wall Street, Secret of My Success, Tucker, Mr. Mom, Working Girl, and Trading Places).

As your instructor, I know what the movie is about....I want to know if you can relate aspects of this movie to contents found in our textbook and elaborate on them!

Step 2:  Write a two to four page report explaining how certain aspects of the movie pertained to the material covered in our textbook. For example, Trading Places covers such aspects as:

  • Business Ethics, 
  • Investments, Securities & Trading,
  • Human Resources & Motivation.  

This is the content I want you to focus on, to get the most possible points.  Note: no points or credit for just submitting a plot of the movie.

The information contained in your summary of the movie you selected,  must tie into the Chapters studied in our Text. For example you could state that portions of this movie pertained to Chapters.....(and you identify those chapters and how you felt they applied/related).
