About

Welcome to the IB Economics Summer Prep-Course! The IB Economics Summer Prep-Course is a comprehensive program designed for students who will be taking the International Baccalaureate (IB) Economics course in the upcoming academic year. However, students who are not taking the IB Diploma Program are also welcome to join. Students in the IB Diploma Program who currently are already taking IB Economics can also take this course to review for upcoming exams. This course will cover both standard level (SL) and higher level (HL) economics content. This intensive 24-session course is specifically tailored to provide students with a solid foundation in key economic concepts and skills, as well as a thorough understanding of the IB Economics curriculum. Learn more about the IB Economics syllabus here: https://peda.net/kuopio/lukiot/lyseonlukio/ib/syllabukset/g3ias/eg2:file/download/7cbf6ca932f417ca8ca00f8a25b126342d8dfc43/PRC-economics-guide-en_f527c535-cbfb-4567-815d-f93fbbdea80b.pdf Learn more about the IB Diploma Program here: https://ibo.org/ Throughout the course, students will engage in a combination of lectures, discussions, and interactive activities to enhance their understanding of fundamental economic theories, principles, and applications. They will also develop critical thinking skills, data analysis skills, and essay writing skills that are essential for success in the IB Economics course. The course will cover various topics, including microeconomics, macroeconomics, international economics, and development economics, as prescribed by the IB Economics curriculum. Students will learn about concepts such as supply and demand, market structures, national income, inflation, exchange rates, and economic development. They will also explore real-world examples and case studies to illustrate the application of economic theories in different contexts. In addition to the academic content, the course will also emphasize the development of research skills, including data collection, analysis, and interpretation. Students will learn how to critically evaluate economic data, construct persuasive arguments, and write concise and coherent essays, which are important skills for the Internal Assessment (IA) and Extended Essay components of the IB Economics course. Please do note that by registering for this course, there will be after-session assignments to complete. While these assignments may be optional, it will critically affect your understanding of the following session if you don't do it. By the end of the summer prep-course, students will have gained a deep understanding of key economic concepts and acquired the necessary skills to excel in the IB Economics course. They will be well-prepared to tackle the challenges of the IB Economics curriculum, including the IA, Extended Essay, and final examinations. Looking forward to seeing you all sign-up! :D
