Students to turn in written assignment
Students will watch: Crashcourse: Productivity and growth: Crash course economics (8:50m). The link is on my site on today's date.
Students will read the article, 9 charts comparing Trump, Obama and Bush economies. The link is on my site on today's date. They will take notes as they read, integrating concepts from the video to support their self-determined small group discussions about President Trump's claim that the economy is the best it's ever been. Feel free to use your judgement to manage the small group discussion to larger, or all class sharing too. Please collect student note at the end of the period.

IB questions for presentation
- Students will develop a poster that outlines their answer to the assigned questions (see teams link) that will be used in their 5 minute presentation on Friday. IB mark schemes have been provided and in some cases examiners report comments on student performance. It should be noted that the topic of growth (Chapter 15) has come up on the exam in five of the last six years. The provided mark schemes should be used as a guide when developing your answers to ensure complete application. DEED should be applied for A. questions and both DEED and CLASPP for B. questions (3 are adequate). Relevant real world examples are required. The posters should be developed in order to facilitate the teams presentation versus having a completely written out answer. Two posters may be used.
