This resource contains two worksheets designed to challenge students and apply their knowledge of behavioural economics to solve market failures in the fast food market and increase household recycling. Both worksheets come with suggested teacher answers and can prompt a good discussion at the end of the lesson when deciding whether nudges are more effective in the fast food market or to encourage recycling. The worksheets are different difficulties, with the recycling worksheet being the more difficult of the two.

A classroom game that demonstrates the circular flow of income. Split your class into households and firms and give them the corresponding worksheet. You need to cut out the slips at the end of the document. There are two rounds to this game. At the start of the first game allocate households factors of production and allocate firms money. The initial allocation of factors of production represents wealth and I divided these unequally between the households but distributed money certificates equally between firms to see who is a better businessman. I did a ratio of two money certificates for every one factor of production so the equilibrium wage should be two (don't let the students know this though). Any unused factors of production represent unemployment and should be taken off households at the end of the game. In the second round change the firms factors of production into goods and services. I did one factor of production equals one goods and services. Ask firms to calculate there profits at the end of the game and find out who were the best business people. Ask the students to draw what they saw in the game. Then ask the students what is missing from the closed economy model.

There are two documents in this resource. The first 'conflict tables activity' gets students to identify how economic growth may conflict with the other macroeconomic objectives themselves. They must provide a balanced answer and complete the table. The answers to this worksheet are on the second document 'conflict tables analysis or evaluation'. Here potential conflicts are explained and students must identify whether they are analysis statements or evaluative statements. You could use this second document as teacher answers, for a short starter activity, as a pre-exam handout or to help struggling students. You could also extend the activity by getting students to draw diagrams that support each of the macroeconomic objectives examined. The macroeconomic objectives examined in relation to economic growth are: - Inflation - Unemployment - Balance of Trade - Environmental Objectives - Income Inequality - Government Budget Deficit
