Material Detail

A complete principles-of-macroeconomics course that runs anywhere from 1 to 15 weeks: fifteen weekly readings, assignments, 20-question quizzes, discussions and a final exam, importable into Canvas as a Common Cartridge. The business cycle and GDP; inflation; unemployment; interest rates, money and credit; aggregate demand and confidence; fiscal and monetary policy; aggregate supply and shocks; growth and investment; the financial system; trade; reading macroeconomic data; booms, busts and stabilization; schools of thought; and a capstone policy memo. Students run a ski resort through a shifting economy in a live simulation, so the business cycle happens to their own business. The readings are free to read on the site, and the Canvas kit is free for instructors.
