Course Overview

Understand Market Dynamics: What drives the economic choices we make? Explore how consumers and producers interact to form markets and learn about the reasons behind government intervention in those markets. You’ll deepen your understanding of core microeconomic concepts through engaging discussions, debates, problem-solving activities, and reflective writing. You’ll apply what you’ve learned by visiting a local production site and crafting a report that analyzes market principles in action.

Why Take This Course? Gain a practical understanding of how markets operate and how economic decisions affect your everyday life. Thinking like an economist, you’ll become more informed and empowered as a consumer, worker, future voter, or producer. This course is perfect for anyone eager to understand the economic forces that shape our world.

Students in GOA courses will need reliable access to a computer with webcam/microphone connections, an email address (preferably school-based), a Web-conferencing app (GOA courses use Zoom), and a Word processing app (GOA courses use Google’s G Suite). When necessary, alternative arrangements may be made. Some courses require additional materials which can be found here.
