Bush, Henry Ford and less familiar figures. Selections include excerpts from Adam Smith, Walter Williams, George W. Making Choices is a collection of documents, speeches, and essays that will help the student understand the practical implications of economics. Each lesson is followed by daily assignments that include reading selections from the Reader, working on a unit project (several are suggested at the beginning of each unit), reading related literature, and answering student review questions (located in the optional Quiz and Exam set). The Student Text, which is very readable and understandable (an accomplishment when the subject is economics), includes 75 daily lessons (typically 4-5 pages each) divided into 15 units. While looking at both classic economic definitions as well as changing economic realities, the author obviously holds to a capitalist free-market system.Īs in the other Notgrass courses, the Curriculum Package includes the Student Text and a Reader, Making Choices. While the course has the stated goal of providing an understanding of what economics is and what it will mean to the student as an adult, it approaches the subject from a perspective of faith in God and a reliance on the Bible as Gods infallible Word to man.
In addition to an overview of economic terms and concepts, a survey of the economic history of the U.S., comprehensive coverage of economic ideas, and economic issues that confront America today, there are two units that examine Gods economics including a survey of economic ideas in church history and the economic issues that Christians face today. Not a study of business or personal finance, this course introduces both microeconomics and macroeconomics. Like the other homeschool-friendly curricula published by the Notgrass family, Exploring Economics provides careful integration of biblical study and worldview with broad-based coverage of the topic this time, economics. We now have the new 2016 edition in stock! Please note that this edition is not compatible with the previous edition of this course.
