Economics: Home Inc. Videos

For this project, student groups in Mr. Lydy's Government and Economics class produced "deliverables" that help convey the importance of setting a budget to clients of Home, Inc. The deliverables take the form of either a 1-minute video (to be housed on Home, Inc.’s website) or a postcard/pamphlet/infographic (to be made available at Home, Inc.’s office). The deliverable needed to detail specific ways that one can save money. Deliverables covered such topics as "Energy Efficiency" (e.g., shower times, winterizing, car tune-ups), "Credit," "Moving Expenses," and "Available Resources" (i.e., local financial resources available to consumers). Students presented their "in progress" deliverables to Chris Hall, Eleanor Gaston and Brittany Keller on Tuesday, November 7, getting feedback on how to improve their product as well as meet their needs and parameters.
