Aimed generally at L6 (16-17) Economics students to promote discussion or revision of the fundamentals of Macroeconomics. The resource uses the tale of Sleeping Beauty to review macroeconomic principles. It can be used as a stimulus for students to prepare a presentation on the impact of destroying all the spindles in the Kingdom or a more structured activity. I have also found it useful as an open ended discussion document. Areas that the students have then discussed included the illegal trade in spindles (for this read illegal drugs), government failure, whether the government should be responsible for providing welfare payments to those out of work, the impact on exchange rates, whether there is a role for international agencies etc.
