  1. Bell Work • Catch it game The rules: • You throw the ball to anyone in the class who has not yet answered a question • You then choose a number and they must answer the question hidden behind their number • If they cannot answer the question you can ask for someone to volunteer to answer, but they cannot have already answered a question

  2. Objectives • To apply our understanding of economics so far • To begin analysing situations and identifying how they are linked to the economic problem.

  3. Book details • AQA A Level Economics Student Book • Fifth edition • Alain Anderton • Publisher: Causeway Press • ISBN-13: 978-1405892384 • RRP £31.00 • Amazon price £24.30

  4. Task 1 - Homework • Write down five questions or statements that you think have something to do with economics. • Now share your ideas with the rest of the class. Given the range of comments and issues collected by the group could you now write down a definition of what economics is?

  5. Task 2 • Make a list of answers to these questions - think of the answers in general terms rather than specifics, e.g. food, health, etc. • What should be produced? • How should these goods and services be produced? • Who should get what is produced?

  6. Task 2 • Having identified these key questions, now take them a stage further - take one item from the list you have in question 1 and break it down further - for example, in health, should the resources allocated to this area be spent on fertility treatment, heart disease, cancer treatment or research into AIDs, etc? • Having considered these factors now start to think about which of these resources you feel should actually be provided and to whom!

  7. Task 3 Analyse the impact of the decision making process on patient care in these two areas of different resource allocations, for example: • Think about the implications of being on different points on the PPF • What are the implications of being at some point within the PPF • What would be the implications of moving from one point to another, either within or on the PPF? • How would hospital managers be able to extend the PPF outwards? • What might be the cause of an inward shift of the PPF?

  8. Task 4 - Applying your Knowledge and Understanding When reading the text, try to identify the following and where they occur: • How does the text relate to the three key questions that are at the heart of the 'economic problem'? • What are the opportunity costs involved in deciding on appropriate levels of health care? • What parts of the text are positive statements and which are normative? Explain your answer. • How does the text suggest that there may be alternative answers to the issue of the provision of health in the UK?

  9. Homework • Read Unit 1 – The basic economic problem • Answer questions 1-3
