1 Colorado Model Content Standards ECONOMICS explaining how economic choices made by individuals, households, businesses, governments, and societies impose opportunity costs on societies as a whole; and STANDARD 1: Students understand that because of the condition of scarcity, decisions must be made about the use of scarce resources. RATIONALE Because human,* natural,* and capital resources* are scarce, individuals, households, businesses, governments, and societies must make economic choices about their alternative uses. Economic choices are influenced by economic incentives to use resources efficiently. All economic choices have opportunity costs* with consequences. Technology, the division of labor,* specialization,* and investment* in human and physical capital affects productivity*, economic growth*, levels of employment, equity,* efficiency,* and stability.* 1.1 Students know that economic choices are made because resources are scarce and that the act of making economic choices imposes opportunity costs.
