Think like an Economist: Introduction to Economic Theory – Tuesday – Fall 2023 and Winter 2024 – 20 Weeks – Grades 9 – 12

In Think like an Economist, Jonathan Meola, will provide your students with a solid introduction to economics.  It will cover pure economic theory as well as how the markets work.  The logic will be clear.  The organization will be impeccable.  Mr. Meola will have a fair balance between the “plan old” economics and the aspect of economic thought that is considered particularly Austrian.  

This class will contain humor, stories as well as a bit of history embedded with it.  

Class will be made up of lectures, multi-media, discussions, and open-ended questions.   Homework will be made up of independent reading, watching videos, creating economic plans and so much more.

By the end of the twenty-week course, students will have a working knowledge of economic theory, principals and how they apply together.  

Students can expect up to two hours of homework weekly.

This class counts as  1 credit of high school history.

NOTE: This class must reach the minimum of five students by August 20th to run. If we do not reach this minimum, parents will be notified via email.
