Hi Fastlaners,
I've been hired by a local high school (grades 9-12) to take their Business Department to the next level!! I've been tasked with deciding what classes are taught, the curriculum, special projects, field trips, etc (basically everything).
As all of us here know, "formal education" often teaches "the Script," and what these kids REALLY need is some Unscripted /Fastlane education!
So I've got this "lump of clay" I want to mold into a business department that will produce graduates educated in the "ways of the Fastlane..."
My question is: WHAT does this department look like, what are the components/features/qualities, etc? After that's determined, then I'll focus my energies on the HOW...
Here's a few specific questions I'm currently thinking about:

Here's a few specific questions I'm currently thinking about:
- Currently we offer Economics, Accounting, Sports Management / Marketing, International Business, Entrepreneurship, Personal Finance, Business Law, and Business Technology (Excel, PPT, Databases). What classes need to be added/subtracted?
- What should the classes we offer focus on (curriculum for each class)? How do we shape our curriculum in all our classes into more student-centered, project-based, hands-on learning instead of lecture-based learning?
- Project ideas to enable students to " learn by doing"?
- What order should the kids take the classes we offer (what classes should be prerequisites to others), or does it even matter? Maybe younger students learn business "nuts and bolts" and older students focus more on application/projects?
