Economic thought - origin of economic ideas in a historical context
To hit these objectives you are each going to be assigned a different economic thinker. Research them to find out their basic information, their time period, their economic ideologies/main contributions to economics etc. Above there is a presentation full of videos, cartoons and short readings - find the pages with information about your economist (but feel free to use extra sources you find on the internet). You will have one class session to do the research (bring headphones for watching the videos) and write a script of what you will say. Then in the next class you will be doing Economist Speed Dating where you will move around the class in character explaining who you are and what you have contributed to economic thought... and listening to others explain the same to you.
