hey guys, just wanted to ask a question regarding to case studies..

do you introduce your case studies in you extended response or do you just incorporate it and talk bout them in you body paragraphs..


thing is our teacher never taught us how to write a report or extended responses....

Ideally, you would put them in the introduction. e.g.

Social Media Marketing is X. It is important because Y. The implementation of of a social media marketing campaign can be seen in the business activities of Coca-Cola and their recent Share A Coke project.

It's hard to give a good example, because I don't have a decent question on me, but hopefully you get the idea.

ah kk, thanks guys!

also, with case studies.. can you just use 2 businesses or so and make stuff up? i'm pretty good at essay writing and can easily link things to the question/ syllabus point

You can, but it never looks as good, and you won't do as well if you make stuff up.

Yeah it's alright to make stuff up. My teacher encourages it and I've just chosen a business I visit a lot and thought about what strategies they would use etc. It's easier too I reckon.

But some people think otherwise, so it's up to you. 2 case studies is fine

That's a bit different to making up a case study entirely. While I don't entirely think it's a great idea, it's better than making up something completely off the top of your head.
