Fundamental Concepts Covered in French Immersion Economics Online Course
Although our resources, as individuals and as a society, are limited – or “scarce”, in the terminology of economics – our needs and wants are virtually unlimited, and so we must constantly make choices. The concepts, models, and methods of inquiry of economics can help us make good decisions about how resources should be used. By studying economics, students will develop an understanding of different economic systems and institutions and will be able to assess the degree to which these systems and institutions help satisfy people’s needs and wants. In particular, economics examines how markets, prices, and governments influence economic decision making. Knowledge of economics will help students assess when markets are best able to serve the public interest and when collective or government action is necessary. It will also help them make better choices as consumers of goods and services, as contributors to the economy, and as economic citizens.
