Today's class was cancelled so that we, students at USU, could support our basketball team in a big game. Instead of having class, we still read Chapter 12 - Marketing Channels and Supply Chain Management and took the quiz, but then we also had a group discussion about Kandy Kastle online.
The case study was a lot of fun to do this way, rather than discuss it in class. It forced everyone to get involved and contribute to the discussion. I chose the question about the Spin Pop - a spinning sucker -"To what category of new products does the Spin Pop belong?" At first I wasn't sure if it would belong to improvements and revisions because it was really just a new "spin" on the ring pop, or if it was a new product because it was the only spinning sucker. After lots of discussions and thought of other students in the class, I think it could kind of be both, but mainly an improvement and revision product.
It was a fun way to have class.
