This is one of a set of Powerpoints (and accompanying Notes/Key Terms sheets) that I have created for my own teaching of the macroeconomic topics in the new (linear) AQA AS Economics specification (7135). They follow the order of teaching recommended by the exam board and (generally) the AQA-approved textbook (Powell & Powell, 2015). Key terms covered in this Powerpoint: (references to the specification): 3.2.2.4 Aggregate demand and the level of economic activity • The role of AD in influencing the level of economic activity. • The multiplier process and an explanation of why an initial change in expenditure may lead to a larger impact on local or national income. 3.2.2.5 Determinants of short-run aggregate supply • The price level and production costs are the main determinants of the short-run AS. • Changes in costs, such as: money wage rates, raw material prices, business taxation and productivity, will shift the short-run AS curve. 3.2.2.6 Determinants of long-run aggregate supply • The fundamental determinants of long-run AS such as technology, productivity, attitudes, enterprise, factor mobility, and economic incentives. • The position of the vertical long-run AS curve represents the normal capacity level of output of the economy.

Key terms covered in this Powerpoint: (references to the specification): 3.2.2.2 Aggregate demand and aggregate supply analysis • Changes in the price level are represented by movements along the aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) curves. • The various factors that shift the AD curve and the short-run AS curve. • The factors which affect long-run AS distinguish them from those which affect short-run AS. • Underlying economic growth is represented by a rightward shift in the long-run AS curve. • How to use AD/AS diagrams to illustrate macroeconomic equilibrium. • How both demand-side and supply-side shocks affect the macroeconomy. 3.2.2.3 The determinants of aggregate demand • What is meant by AD. • The determinants of AD, ie. the determinants of consumption, investment, government spending, exports and imports. • The basic accelerator process. • The determinants of savings. • The difference between saving and investment.

Key terms covered in this Powerpoint: (referenced to the specification): 3.2.1.1 The objectives of government economic policy • The main objectives of government macroeconomic policy: economic growth, price stability, minimising unemployment and a stable balance of payments on current account. • The possibility of conflict arising, at least in the short run, when attempting to achieve these objectives. Students should be aware that governments may also have other objectives of macroeconomic policy, such as balancing the budget and achieving an equitable distribution of income. They should be aware that the importance attached to the different objectives changes over time. 3.2.1.2 Macroeconomic indicators • Data which is commonly used to measure the performance of an economy, such as: real GDP, real GDP per capita, Consumer Prices and Retail Prices Indices (CPI/RPI), measures of unemployment, productivity and the balance of payments on current account. 3.2.1.3 Uses of index numbers • How index numbers are calculated and interpreted, including the base year and the use of weights. • How index numbers are used to measure changes in the price level and changes in other economic variables.

Boris Becker claimed diplomatic immunity in Central African Republic to avoid bankruptcy proceedings. About 700 immigrants were turned away from Italy but were allowed to land in Spain. An immigrant in New York was captured as he delivered pizza to a military base. FIFA announced the world cup will be hosted by USA, Canada, and Mexico (assuming they’re all still friends then).

Cards to play different games about the Silk Road in Ancient Times, at the time of the Romans and the Han dynasty China. The cards are about the Romans, the Chinese, and general information about the Silk Road (routes, countries…). Pupils can classify the cards to learn about the Silk Road, play with them (memory or other games). This activity has been prepared by a French teacher to study the subject in English with Year 6) 6e pupils. Thanks for being tolerant with the different propositions of how to play with the cards. Don’t hesitate to tell me if you have better ideas (I would be pleased!) or find any spelling mistake (I hope not!)… Thank you.

Resource was created to introduce lower secondary students to the economy. The activity involves giving each student a card with a unique “economic situation” on it. Students must read through their situation and determine whether they are part of a weak and struggling economy, or whether they are part of a strong and thriving economy. In my classroom we had a divided section on the whiteboard and students had to sort themselves into either one of the catergories. They then had to explain their reasoning and we had a discussion afterwards. This was used in a Year 8 Geography class but can be used throughout a variety of subjects. Would be best used as an introductory excercise.

Plastics have become an integral part of modern life, providing many benefits for consumers and producers. But what happens to our waste plastic? Where does it all end up? Is recycling plastics really that effective? In this lesson, students will explore how we use plastics in everyday packaging and how these might be redesigned in such a way as to not become a ‘waste’ problem.
