Day 83 (Tuesday)

We wrapped up reviewing for the Final Assessment, which will take place tomorrow (Wednesday the 12th). Today's reviewed topics included the Great Recession, inherent and contradictory rights, Protectionism, and opportunity cost.

We learned about the economic term Cost-benefit Analysis. We graphed it, considered calculus tools, and watched a clip from Seinfeld depicting an analysis by George. Then the students considered a future decision of their own and conducted an analysis.

We're wrapping the course up this week, the students need to have their third paper in by Friday.
