STANDARD COURSE OF STUDY SOCIAL STUDIES: 2003: Economics is designed to equip students with the knowledge and tools necessary to understand the mechanics and functions of the American economic system. Key elements include the study of scarcity, supply and demand, market structures, the role of government, national income determination, money and the role of financial institutions, economic stabilization, trade and interdependence, and comparative economic systems. As a result of acquiring information and developing a reasoned approach to decision making, students will be able to make informed choices in their respective roles as consumers, producers, employees, employers, borrowers, lenders, savers, investors as well as voters. Strands: Deductive Reasoning, Graph and Chart Interpretation, Data Analysis, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, International Trade and Levels of Economic Activity Competency Goal 1 The learner will demonstrate the role of economic choices within a market economy.
