New Studying Method

This week in the wonderful class of Economics, we learned about GDP and what it takes to figure it out!  Doing the math is easy!  The formula is C+I+G+X, which stand for consumption, investments, government spending and next exports.  We also learned about recession and depression, four stages of the business cycle, the different ownership of a business.  Our lovely teacher also discovered a very unique yet effective way to prepare for our test!  She put the letters A,B,C,D in different areas of the room and she would ask us a multiple choice question, read the choices and we would have to walk to the letter we felt was the answer!  How much fun was that???  I thought it was so much fun!  A great way to help us prepare for the test and not just reading the questions and asking what we think the answer is!  I really think we should do this more often because it is a great way to make everyone move and such a fun way to study!  I really thought moving around the room helped us all remember the answer to the question!  I hope we do this more often!

  1. It was actually a really good way to study in my opinion for the test! it really helped me on the test and I think we should do something like that more often! I still am not sure what the difference between a country's and the official GDP is.

  2. I agree it was a good study method. I felt it helped me on the test. I think more teachers and classes you should come up with better study methods. The methods should be fun and interactive which will make everyone engage more and therefore learn more.
