In this course, students will be learning about World Economics through the Junior Achievement Economics for Success program. The students will also watch a series of economic videos. Each video is approximately 7-10 minutes and focuses on 1 specific topic related to Economics. For each video students will submit a brief summary of what they learned while watching the video. Parents, these video's make a great discussion starters for you to have with your son/daughter on your financial/economic beliefs. I would encourage you to watch them together.
We will be utilizing Google Classroom for assignments in this class.
