For example, if few people get a final score above 90% because of difficult exams, then I will give out more As to account for difficultly of the exams. In this case, I typically assign a median (midpoint) grade of a B-/C+. Exams There will be no make-up exams, so if you can not attend class on the day of the in-class exams or you can not attend the final exam, please do not enroll in this course for a grade. You are welcome to take the course for a pass-fail grade. Exams will include multiple choice questions focused on the lecture notes, textbook and homework (also taken from the textbook). The final exam will concentrate on material after the second in-class exam, but will also include some earlier material. Homework assignments Late homework will not be accepted. If you can not finish in time, hand in what you have completed for partial credit. I do this out of fairness for your fellow students. If you know that you will be out of town or otherwise unavailable when the assignment is due, you must submit it early. Please turn in your assignments at class time or at my office or in the Digital Drop Box under the Course Tools link by 6:00 p.m. on the due date. Homework is completed in teams. I will initially assign homework teams, but you are free to switch teams before the first homework assignment is due. Each team should have 3-5 students, and each problem set has about 4 problems, so each person should be responsible for about 1 problem per assignment if work is allocated equally. You may try the Collaboration function under the Communication folder on Blackboard to communicate with your team members. A team submits only one copy of answers, and all team members receive the same grade for the assignment. When you turn in your homework assignment, write the names of each team member in the upper right corner of the first page, so that credit can be given to each member. Answers to the homework problems will be posted on the website after the due date under the Course Documents folder. You are expected to read the answers to the homework assignments by yourself, since I will not generally cover homework assignments in lecture. Class participation Regular class participation can help your grade if you are on the borderline between two grades. For example, if you are at the cutoff between a B+/A-, regular class participation would boost your grade to an A-. I will call on homework groups to explain their answers from time to time. Course overview This course will study several topics in macroeconomics, and models that are sometimes useful in making predictions about these topics. In particular, we will look at how to measure income, the value of production within a country, unemployment, interest rates and exchanges rates. We will study how input and output prices influence these measures, and why it is important to determine how quickly prices change over time. We will also study models that help us understand why countries experience contractions and expansions in economic activity. Finally, we will study topics related to how an economy grows and acquires wealth over time, in order to address the question of why some countries are rich while others are poor. Our class time will include lecture and in-class discussion. Lecture material will be based on the material from the textbook, so it is good to read the text before or shortly after class. Learning objectives: At the end of this course, good students will be able to explain how models are used in economics to measure national income to predict how interest rates change in the long run in response to various economic changes to predict how exchange rates change in the long run to explain what causes unemployment in the long run to describe factors that make an economy grow in the long run to describe factors that make economic production and income fluctuate in the short run Cheating Don't cheat. If I catch you looking at someone else's exam or at notes during an exam, you will receive an F for the exam. Any case of cheating will be referred to Judicial Affairs. Working with fellow students on homework assignments, however, is not cheating and is encouraged. Advice on studying Create your own notebook: print the lecture notes before lecture and write on them during lecture. You will get more value out of your tuition dollars if you read the assigned material before it is covered in class. Treat academics as you might athletics: pace yourself throughout the semester, rather than cram before exams. Try to stay healthy and maintain a healthy sleep regimen: the course will be much more enjoyable and you will probably learn more. The theory of economics does not furnish a body of settled conclusions immediately applicable to policy. It is a method rather than a doctrine, an apparatus of the mind, which helps its possessor to draw correct conclusions. --John Maynard Keynes DateLecture topicAssigned readingProblems and applications at the end of chapters 28 Jan.Review of syllabus and the use of models.Chapter 1: The science of macroeconomics. 4 Feb.Measures of real and nominal income and expenditureChapter 2: The data of macroeconomics11 Feb.National income, production and national savingChapter 3: National income: where it comes from and where it goes.
