  1. You could ask students to think up a list of perks they might like in a job, such as a mobile phone, use of a swimming pool, access to a company car, etc.

  2. Make a list of these and then students go around asking each other what their preference is.

  3. If you then multiply the results by 100, your students can write a short report based on what perks proved popular and what didn't.

  4. In a class of university students, you could do the same regarding new facilities they would like to see on campus.
