Essentials of Government/Economics
Grade: 12
Semester: 2
Credit: 1
Prerequisite: N/A
Fee: $0.00
This course will combine the curriculum of American/Arizona Government and Economics into a one year course, using a sequence that intentionally creates connections in order to appropriately coordinate the overlap between the two subjects and deepen understanding. The course will be taught in thematic units, while integrating an interdisciplinary approach, focusing on research and writing skills. Students will engage in simulations, Socratic seminars, and research-based projects that analyze the role of government in the economy. Historical and contemporary issues will be analyzed from a constitutional and economic perspective. Class may be taken only upon teacher approval. This course is a year-long commitment. District graduation requirements for Government and Economics will only be issued upon completion of the entire year.
