Current Events and article/video response papers require students to apply their
understanding of economic theory to real-world events and provide an opportunity to
study the impacts of politics, social context and government policy on the economy. To
complete these short assignments you are required to:
1. Read the article or watch the video I provide.
2. Summarize the article/video in 1-2 paragraphs.
3. Explain the economic significance of the topic: how is the article/video connected
to topics we are covering in class? What economic issues does this article/video
touch on and how? How you can explain the issue at hand in the context of
economics? This section should be at least 2-3 paragraphs and should reflect your
understanding of the course material.
4. Write a short 1-2 paragraphs about your own opinion of the topic – if the
article/video is about a specific tax, for example, do you support the tax, and if so,
why (or why don’t you support the tax…) Make sure to support your position!
