Concepts: Income for most people is determined by the market value of their labor, paid as wages and salaries. People can increase their income and job opportunities by choosing to acquire more education, work experience, and job skills. The decision to undertake an activity that increases income or job opportunities is affected by the expected benefits and costs of such an activity. Income also is obtained from other sources such as interest, rents, capital gains, dividends, and profits.

Concepts: Credit allows people to purchase goods and services that they can use today and pay for those goods and services in the future with interest. People choose among different credit options that have different costs.

Higher-risk borrowers are charged higher interest rates; lower-risk borrowers are charged lower interest rates.

Concepts: Financial investment is the purchase of financial assets to increase income or wealth in the future.

Concepts: People make choices to protect themselves from the financial risk of lost income, assets, health, or identity. They can choose to accept risk, reduce risk, or transfer the risk to others.

Concepts: Income for most people is determined by the market value of their labor, paid as wages and salaries. People can increase their income and job opportunities by choosing to acquire more education, work experience, and job skills. The decision to undertake an activity that increases income or job opportunities is affected by the expected benefits and costs of such an activity. Income also is obtained from other sources such as interest, rents, capital gains, dividends, and profits.

Concepts: Credit allows people to purchase goods and services that they can use today and pay for those goods and services in the future with interest. People choose among different credit options that have different costs. Lenders approve or deny applications for loans based on an evaluation of the borrower’s past credit history and expected ability to pay in the future. Higher-risk borrowers are charged higher interest rates; lower-risk borrowers are charged lower interest rates.

Concepts: Financial investment is the purchase of financial assets to increase income or wealth in the future. Investors must choose among investments that have different risks and expected rates of return. Investments with higher expected rates of return tend to have greater risk.

Concepts: People make choices to protect themselves from the financial risk of lost income, assets, health, or identity. They can choose to accept risk, reduce risk, or transfer the risk to others. Insurance allows people to transfer risk by paying a fee now to avoid the possibility of a larger loss later. The price of insurance is influenced by an individual’s behavior.

71 Technology 0 The set of instructions or blueprints that inform producers about the various ways that capital and labor can be combined to produce a particular product is the technology of production. From these possible input choices, producers select combinations of labor and capital to produce output that maximizes profits. The technology of production defines the productivity of resources, and improvements in technology typically increase productivity of resources. A "change in technology" usually refers to new ways to produce more or better output with the same quantities of input resources (or the same output level with fewer input resources).

High School Lessons

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lesson 10- How The Industrial Revolution Raised Living Standards
World History: Focus on Economics


The teacher conducts a brief simulation that illustrates how specialization and division of labor and improvements in capital goods increase productivity. The teacher displays a visual that shows other sources of increases in productivity. Students work in groups to find examples of different ways of increasing productivity in a reading about Josiah Wedgwood and the Industrial Revolution and how it affected the pottery industry.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unit 7: Lesson 19 - How Many Children Can Mother Earth Stand?
Economics and the Environment


Population statistics are introduced to students, presenting examples students can relate to their own lives (living space and family size).

Middle School Lessons

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lesson 8 - Ideas That Changed the World
Middle School World Geography: Focus on Economics


In this lesson, the students learn about productivity and its connection to the standard of living. They learn about inventions that changed the world. The students make predictions about recent inventions and the impact of these inventions on productivity, standard of living and quality of life.

Elementary Lessons

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unit 3: Lesson 9 - What Results When People Use Improved Physical Capital Resources?
Choices & Changes: In Life, School, & Work - Grades 5-6 - Teacher's Resource Manual


Students learn that using technologies increase production during a business simulation.

Tip #1

One way to show how technology improves productivity is to solve simple math problems with and without a calculator. Give the students 10 math problems and have them solve the problems without a calculator. Then give the students 10 more problems and let them use a calculator. In both cases, have the students keep track of the time it took and their accuracy. How did technology improve productivity?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tip #2

Many people incorrectly believe that technology increases unemployment. This is known as the lump of labor fallacy. In fact, technology creates jobs and increases a nation's standard of living. Of course, other jobs are lost, but overall employment increases. In 1900, 20,000,000 people were employed. Today over 130,000,000 people are employed. How many new jobs were created in the automobile, plastics, airplane, television, computer, medical and electronics industries because of improved technologies?
