After significant debate we
have chosen to cover the following topics.
However, please write to us what you would like
to see more. Here are the reasons for each
category selection and the companies that we
plan to focus on: |
| |
| Auto |
|
It is a worthwhile industry
topic for kids as it is an integral part of our
daily lives and we use automobiles to go places,
school, work, shopping, fun things, friends and
family to meet. We plan to follow the top
companies in this industry such as General
Motors (GM), Ford, Toyota, Honda,
DaimlerChrysler, Nissan etc… to track for the
interesting news. |

| |
| Technology |
|
It is such an exciting and
vast area that we will focus on technology where
a direct simple business impact is visible to a
kid. We do plan to bring the news and
knowledge of science and engineering that
affects our lives and environment we live in to
this website. |

| Environment

|
With the current focus of the
news on Green house effects and the change in
climate and environment we want the kids to
learn about the business aspects of the
environmental issues. |
| |
| Computer and Electronics
|
|
Most the kids are familiar
with it and use it so much that this topic was
not of contest. We plan to update on the
news that relates to the topic and follow
interesting news for the top companies in the
industry, such as IBM, DELL, Apple, HP, Sony,
Microsoft, Nokia…. |

This topic made the cut for
us as medical news affects our daily lives and
therefore we plan to track the news from the key
companies such as Johnson & Johnson,
Merck, Pfizer, CVS,
Walgreens,…. |

Colgate,Post-it, UPS, Walmart, Target, P&G,

Economy
–
Economy and its news affects all
of us, how we live our lives, buy or sell
things, spend monies, and our future. We
plan to bring certain simple concepts as
government policies, interest rates, trade, etc.
into the picture to stimulate the learning
further. In addition, we believe that kids are
equally impacted by our job situations and
therefore, we will keep a pulse on the job news
as appropriate. |
