Sports and Entertainment Marketing is a specialized marketing course that develops student understanding of the sport/event industries, their economic impact and products; distribution systems and strategies; pricing considerations; product/service management, and promotion. Throughout the course, students are presented problem-solving situations for which they must apply academic and critical-thinking skills. Note: this class is taught as a “hybrid” course, combining traditional instruction based on seat time and digital instruction based on flex time. This course requires a degree of attendance as a normal class (usually 2-3 days a week) and a degree of flex time where work is completed outside of the class room (usually 2-3 days a week). This course allows students the flexibility to work through the curriculum partially at their own pace while developing academic responsibility. Typically this class will be offered first or seventh periods. Students taking this class are best served by arriving shortly before the start of second period or departing immediately after sixth. Students arriving before second period or remaining after sixth will be placed in a study hall.
