Detailed specification Notes
Detailed comprehensive essay plans for all topics for macroeconomics
Challenging topics addressed in critical detail for theme 4.
Developing country analysis for Theme 4, which serves specifically useful for developing economies essays. The chosen country is Nigeria, with some additional information on the UK, Germany and China for extra economic application to similar essays.
Fantastic student work booklet / worksheets introducing Macro-economic data to Economics A-Level students.
The worksheets invite ‘self-discovery learning’, with easy-to-deduce data leading to understanding.
The tasks highlight common misunderstandings. For instance, the tasks bring clarity to the fact that a falling economic growth rate still means that GDP is rising, and that a falling inflation rate still means Price Levels are rising.
Model Revision Notes and Definitions are provided at the back of the booklet.
Perfect task to start the Macro-course (or even recap the Macro course!).
Topics in the booklet include:
GDP, Economic Growth, Inflation, Deflation, Price Levels, Unemployment, Government Spending and Government Revenue, Fiscal Surpluses and Fiscal Deficits, National Debt, Trade Surpluses and Trade Deficits, and a spotlight on Protecting the Environment through Rhino population data!
(Suitable for both Edexcel and AQA Courses)
Students will understand the key economic theory of macroeconomics and how economies can be judged through veracious types of indicators and data. Students will learn about the key government objectives and how they can be measured. Students will also look at economic growth and PPF diagrams and how this links to various bits of data. The lesson also reflects on how non-economic measures can be used to judge an economy. The lesson includes deep theory, many tasks, examples and videos. This lesson is aimed at higher level Macroeconomic teaching and includes a group task and various worksheets.
NOW UPDATED FOR 2022 WITH NEW HYPERLINKS
This is my complete set of presentation resources and corresponding workbooks for teaching the AQA Macroeconomics Year 1 content.
Slides have starters, activities and all of the core information needed for the AQA course. There are 76 lessons in total (I teach 50 minute lessons) with plenty to stretch and challenge, meaning many lessons could be stretched out over more than one lesson. Most lessons (after the first half term or so) have 3 multiple choice starter questions to prompt discussion and memory retention as students have to revisit past concepts.
Workbooks are also included, which I use digitally, so that pupils have the core information and useful images in their notes. There are links, review exercises and research tasks all in an attractive and easy to navigate format. My pupils have loved this new addition. My reasoning was to reduce note-taking time and increasing discussion and active thinking time.
