Description
Studying what and how people are persuaded in psychology and economics is interesting, but actually trying to this in a simulation / experiment is downright fun! This lab gives your psych / econ students some key background information into the world of advertising, and reiterates some important principles of psychology, and then it turns your students loose to explore these concepts further. The goal? Students are to write, act, edit, and then ultimately present, their own TV commercial.
This activity can give a tremendous boost to your Psychology / Economics curriculum, and it gives your students a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate many skills they probably didn't know they had!
