Mr. Haas's Gov/Econ
American Government is designed to give you a deeper understanding of the structure of our government as well as the policies and people that influence it as you get ready to vote, participate in community activities, and assume the responsibilities of citizenship. Over the course of this class you will become a better reader, writer and speaker. You will also develop and improve your critical thinking skills. This course includes class lectures, group discussions, oral and written presentations and current events.
Economics is designed to provide students with an understanding of individual and national economic decisions and their consequences. Students will study opportunity costs, supply and demand, microeconomics, government policy, macroeconomics, and foreign trade. Fundamental economic concepts, applying the tools (graphs, statistics, and equations) from other disciplines to understand the operations and institutions of economic systems, will be covered. The basic economic principles of micro- and macroeconomic, international economics, comparative economic systems, and methods will be studied in a historical context.
