This one day workshop for teachers of AP Macroeconomics will address the most commonly misunderstood concepts from the exam through content presentations and hands on lesson demonstrations. Creative teaching ideas will be emphasized to increase student understanding of fundamental macroeconomic concepts that are frequent causes of student exam errors. Participants will also learn strategies to prepare students for short and long response questions and insights into scoring from experienced AP Economics readers. Lunch and all classroom materials including the Virtual Economics 4.5 flash drive ($160 value) will be provided at no cost. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. The registration deadline is January 24, 2018. For more information, contact Julie Kornegay either through email or phone 205-968-6728.
