Objective: The purpose of this project is to (1) encourage you to see economics at work all around you in your daily life, and (2) sharpen your analytical skills in applying economic theory to real-world events.
Task: Read The Gulf News,
The National, popular newspapers, and magazines from other countries,, scan the internet and look for news events where you can see the principles and concepts we study in class playing out in business. Collect these articles or news events, and for each one explain how it is possible to see economic forces at work in the story. These articles must be published after July/2020
Grading:
Each student is required to explain a certain number of concepts to be considered for a grade. After reaching the minimum number of concepts, the project will be graded for content, grammar, and spelling, neat and professional presentation, timeliness in turning it in.
You do not have a “number of articles” requirement; you have a “number of concepts explained” requirement.
Every student must explain 5 concepts.
There is a list of possible concepts on the reverse side.
Please make sure the article is not an academic article that explains the economics, but an article that doesnt mention economic but you recognize the economics in the article based on the 10 principles of economics.
Use Correct APA Format
Your paper should include an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. Also, support your answers with the course’s readings and at least two scholarly journal articles. The article’s purpose is to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook.
Sources ProQuest and EBSCOhost are great sites to find resources. Also, write in a concise and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. Additionally, the quality of your writing dictates grading criteria. On the other hand, if you use direct quotes from books or articles, place the words you copied (use parenthesis) and cite them in-line. Also, only use sources within the five-year range.
