Liberty University Micro Economics Supply and Demand Article Summary & Questions

 

Thread Prompt: In this module/week’s forum, you must find an article containing
material that is relevant to microeconomics, clearly link your article
to material from the textbook, then compose a thread discussing the
topic per the instructions below. The article you choose along with the
textbook must be referenced in current APA format. Acceptable research
sources for your articles include periodicals, journals, newspapers,
and magazines. Sources such as Wikipedia, About.com, book reviews, and
blogs are prohibited.

  • In the opening paragraph, provide a summary of the article.
  • In
    the second paragraph, explain an economic idea contained in the story.
    Specifically, refer to material from the textbook, including the page
    number, and note how the economic idea plays a prominent role in the
    story.
  • In
    the third paragraph, explain what you think about the events in the
    story. You do not have to agree with what is going on, but you do need
    to provide your reaction to it. This is your chance to express yourself:
    what are your opinions? Be sure to defend your position.
  • Finally, what do you think is a Christian response to this situation? Provide details to support your view (in other words, do not just say “Christians wouldn’t act the same way as economists”).
  • Be sure to title your thread according to your topic.

Reply Prompt: For
your replies, respond to at least two classmates’ threads. At least one
of them must deal with a story different from the one you address in
your thread. You must make substantive comments about your classmate’s
thread. Just saying “I agree” in one form or another is not acceptable. A
good reply might include a question of clarification, a question that
is relevant to the topic but was not discussed, a counterpoint to the
author’s points, or a well-supported disagreement. Be sure to keep your
replies civil.
