4 March - Updates and Materials for Upcoming Test

The flash website for different types of Demand and Supply Curves can be found here: http://dineshbakshi.com/interactive-graphs/1361-demand-and-supply-curves-interactive-graphs Here are some materials for the upcoming test, which is due to take place on Friday, 8 March.

Note that 6 March [Wednesday] you were to have read the Jobs Bio, pp. 154--200.  There will be an assignment associated with that reading on that day, so make sure you have read that section of the book. 

20 February - PLEASE TAKE NOTE

As you know by now, tomorrow your essays are due at the beginning of class.  Please be prepared to discuss your company informally with the rest of the class as well.    You DO NOT have to prepare a PowerPoint or use any materials for this part of the assignment, I just want to ask you a few questions and even some clarifications.  One question all of you might consider in your research is what do you think led to the success of the company you chose to do research on?  No wrong or right answers, but you might want to consider this question, especially those of you interested in pursuing Business and Economics courses next year.

Any last minute questions, contact me.

15 February - Company Research Essay UPDATE

The new due date for the essay is Thursday, 2/19/2013. This is because of the difficulty in class with the projector and length of time it took you to complete the quiz. Also I took into account that today was a shortened block. Any last minute questions or concerns we can discuss on Tuesday. Next Tuesday or Thursday I will have you update your portfolios for Week 5. You should be starting to do some initial research for the Stock Market project and consider factors that might be influencing the direction of your portfolios (are they going up, down, or staying the same). Next week I will cover price elasticity and finish up with Unit 7, with the idea of a test on the unit afterwards. Also please update your portfolios for this past week, using SET closing prices from 2/13/2013 (Wednesday). I have sent the document via gmail to all students in the class. If you did not receive that email, please contact me and I will resend it. We will update our portfolios next Tuesday or Thursday.
