Select one country to analyze (excluding the United States). Reference the “World Regions and Countries” document, located in the Topic 2 Resources, for guidance on the various regions in the world and the designated countries within each region.
Using the globalEDGE website, provided in Class Resources, navigate to the Global Insights dropdown and select By Country to find information about your selected country. Note: You will need to utilize additional resources to complete your research and analysis.
In a PowerPoint presentation (8-10 slides), conduct and apply your research to answer the following questions.
Go to the globalEDGE website (see link in Class Resources). Review the History section in the Global Insights dropdown on the globalEDGE website. Introduce the country and identify the region where the country is located. Consider your selected country, either as a colonizer or as a colony, and describe the reasons for colonization and its impact within the country.
Discuss how the three aspects of globalization (economic, political, and cultural dimensions) influenced the level of development (i.e., developed, emerging, or developing) for the country.
Discuss the pros and cons of globalization and its impact on the level of development within the selected country.
Identify a multinational corporation (MNC) that conducts business in the country. The MNC must have originated outside of that country and have significant operations in your selected country. Justify why the multinational company entered the country. What challenges did it face? What opportunities did it encounter?
Review “Module A” from your textbook readings. Identify two significant international institutions in which the country participates and describe the effect on the country.
Identify a significant trade bloc to which the country belongs and describe the key components of the trade agreement(s).
Review the Trade Statistics section in globalEDGE and describe the trade partners and major export/import goods for the country. Among the trade partners, how do exchange rate fluctuations influence trade?
Conclude your presentation with a brief justification for why you have selected the country. Consider providing a fun fact about the country that is of interest to you.
The PowerPoint presentation should consist of 8-10 slides, not including the title slide and reference slides. You are required to cite scholarly sources to support your claims in the slides. Speaker notes are required in the notes section of the slides. Images may be included in the presentation but be sure to keep all image sizes low for this presentation.
Review the “Course Materials Support” section of the Student Success Center for guidance on recording tool options. Record a video presentation (using, Zoom, Loom, Microsoft Teams, Vimeo, etc.), sharing your screen with the slides showing and also with at least your face showing as you present. Note that points will be deducted for audio only submissions. Make sure to keep the following details in mind for your submission:
Given that you are required to have 8-10 slides, the time for the video should be about 8-10 minutes, so there will be a point deduction for going above or below that range.
As the digital classroom does not support large file sizes, you will need to upload your created video to a shareable platform and embed this link into the title slide of your presentation, which you will upload to the digital classroom.
Each content slide will need to include developed speaker notes in which you fully explain your ideas presented on the slides.
