This third edition of the book provides an innovative chapter on dynamic stochastic general equilibrium DSGE models. This chapter provides a bridge between long-run economic growth and short-run economic fluctuations, and fits in nicely at the end of Part 3 of the textbook to remind us of the links between the long run and the short run. Chapters 1— 4 Introduction through the basics of growth and productivity , 8—11, and 15 inflation, business cycles, and DGSE models , and two of the following: Chapters 5, 6.
In this day and age of assessment, we are ever conscious of what we teach, how we teach it, who our students are, what.

Every chapter in this manual also has a sample lecture that you can use, written on a topic that students typically have a tough time with.
In the case studies I provide some additional facts or theories that might help to flesh out a lecture or provoke classroom discussion.
For math-averse students, Chapter 5 Solow may be omitted if necessary, while key parts of Chapter 6 Growth and Ideas may be covered without difficulty Sections 6. That means that instructors can still teach the economics of ideas a largely math-free topic , yet avoid the math of the Solow model. This instruction manual does something different: it is written to help you do a better job teaching with this innovative textbook.
In this manual, I walk through each chapter from beginning to end, discussing how you might approach topics that students often find troublesome—for instance, the Solow steady state, making sense of the three ways to measure GDP, or what the Fisher equation really means. I always try to point out which topics you can safely gloss over or omit, and I often mention an illustration or two that might make your lectures a bit more relevant.
In particular, do our students really own an understanding of the subject matter or do they simply borrow an understanding for the course? One of my teaching objectives is to ensure, as much as possible, that students own an understanding of economics. To that end, I begin the introductory class with a set of unfolding questions. I start with the most basic question, What is economics? The better students respond with the textbook definition given in principles, which is fine.
But then I ask the question, Would your brother or sister, friend or parent understand that answer? Most students respond by saying no. So the next question is, Why study economics? Because of the economic problem. What economic problem? Not having enough resources or goods to meet needs and desires. What causes scarcity? Resource constraints inherent in nature and the process of social interaction that create wants and desires for goods. Again, via modified Heilbroner, How does a society, regardless of space and time, confront scarcity?
What economic system does most of the world use today to confront scarcity? Students will say capitalism or markets. What are markets? Markets are the process whereby buyers and sellers interact to determine prices and quantities. What two approaches do we have for studying markets?
Microeconomics, the study of the individual parts of the economy, and macroeconomics, the study of the economy as a whole. Introduction to Macroeconomics 3 with emphasis on factors like economic growth, economic fluctuations, unemployment, inflation, and international economic relations.
Microeconomics is rooted in the writings of Adam Smith in An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations I like to say the full title—it sums up what most of economics is about. Smith showed that markets promote order and stability by allowing individuals to freely express self-interest through markets, and that the expression of self-interest promotes the social good.
Of course, if Smith is correct then markets, as a set of institutions, become a set of goods that promote social welfare. Well, what about macroeconomics? Where did it come from? If anything, macroeconomics was the consequence of market failures as evidenced by the Great Depression. To illustrate the market failures, Keynes invoked fallacies of composition in reasoning, like the paradox of thrift that wage deflation in isolation can stabilize a labor market, but wage deflation in the economy as a whole will do little to reduce unemployment and may actually destabilize the economy.
According to this legislation, government should pursue policies to promote maximum employment, production, and purchasing power. In addition, this legislation created the Council of Economic Advisors and the Joint Economic Committee to advise the president and Congress on the economy. Subsequently, macroeconomics, along with microeconomics, became part of every core economics curriculum.
Although there is little disagreement as to how to teach microeconomics, tension remains as to how to teach macroeconomics. In particular, conflict occurs over whether to emphasize the long run or the short run. Today, the U. Clearly the emphasis in policy has shifted to the short run, but long-run concerns remain. The unemployment rate rose from 4.
Two of the big three U. Unprecedented steps were taken by the Federal Reserve and the U. Treasury to bail out the financial sector and to save the automakers. An economic stimulus bill was passed that included tax credits for first-time homebuyers, cash for clunkers, tax cuts, and funding for so-called shovel-ready projects to name a few. Moreover, despite bailouts and the stimulus, we have seen the money supply M2 grow by 8 percent in , 2.
The threat of worldwide recession remains. This experience has taken the economics profession by surprise, and is currently causing us to reevaluate what we think about how the economy works. A generation ago, such topics would barely have been mentioned, but with the rise of globalization, the spread of markets around the world, and a new concern about global growth prospects, a new emphasis in economics has emerged.
Back then, many macroeconomists thought they could control the overall level of GDP on a year-to-year basis. In those days, we spent the semester talking about how to control the demand for goods and services in the economy. Back then, we thought we actually could control things.
There are increases in the. The key problem of economics is scarcity—and the miracle of long-term economic growth is that most of the things people want are a little bit less scarce each year. Given that the U. It only fluctuates from year to year by about 1. There is also a lack of alternative outlets such as literary magazines or magazines.
