Economic decisions affect us every day of our lives. Understanding economics means thinking about how scarcity, or limited resources, requires us to make choices and evaluate one option against others. In this course, students learn to recognize examples of economics in their daily lives. They see how the economic choices of larger groups, like businesses and governments, affect them and others. As students progress through the course, they recognize that the costs and benefits of choices connect individuals and groups around the world. The purpose of this course is to help students become smart consumers who understand the flow of an economy between individuals, businesses, governments, and the rest of the world.
