Supporting Document Component

  • AP Macroeconomics presents the principles of economics that apply to an economic system as a whole. Students will distinguish between absolute and comparative advantage, explore the way the tools of supply and demand are used to analyze how a free-market economy works, and study the concept of a business cycle. In addition, students will study and analyze economic fluctuations, the dynamics of unemployment, and inflation.
  • No documents to display.
  • If it has been determined by the student's IEP Team or Section 504 Committee that the student qualifies as a student with a disability under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ("IDEA") or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act ("Section 504"), either an IEP or a Section 504 Plan will be developed for the student. While the School remains the local educational agency ("LEA") and is responsible for providing all direct services, they will upload a copy of the plan and Pearson teachers shall review the IEPs and Section 504 Plans in order to implement the appropriate portions of the document in the online setting.
