G11 - Week 27 - Day 2

Use of class time

Effective use of time is about efficiency. Time is a scarce input, the desired output is better performance on IB assessments. Below are the uses of time more desired by the class:
  1. Lecture
  2. Application (news articles
  3. IB questions
  4. Discussion (current events and review)
The easiest way to determine if the time use of was effective is a simple rating on a scale of 1-5. Was your time used effectively? No, not at all is a 1. Yes, completely effective use of time is a 5. If you do not answer 5 after each class, you have use class time inefficiently in regards to better course understanding and higher assessment marks.

  18. Question for Chapter 19:
    Given the social and political changes that supply side policies have an effect on, what has been the long term impacts that these policies have on those countries who had enacted it?

    Could you say that supply side policies could generate more social and political problems (dissension) compared to Fiscal or monetary policy?
