Economics: Theory and Practice, 11th Edition

Economics
09030000010: A.P. Economics - Micro
Recommendation
Evaluation
Though the book is designed to be an AP text, it omits core principles from the exam description and does not provide enough material and examples to be an effective tool for the Advanced Placement exams. It would be an effective text for an honors class or an introductory course to economics, but the layout of the textbook too fragmented rather than better streamlined and separated between Micro and Macro for regular Economic students to fully comprehend.
I would rate this textbook as C - Recommended Teacher Source....and D Recommended Student Source. While I would not recommend as a primary textbook, I would recommend as a supplemental textbook that could give valuable additional information for both teachers and students who need further guidance in learning difficult concepts.

| Ethnic Studies (Ethnic studies in core standards and curriculum should be a narrowly tailored incorporation of age-appropriate opportunities that naturally arise through education without pretextual effort in courses, programs, or activities where ethnic studies is not a primary focus. The material should incorporate curriculum of people and cultures that reflect the state’s various demographics without commentary that seeks to violate the neutrality standard established in codes: 53B-1-118, 53G-2-103, 53G-2-104, 53G-2-105, 67-27-107, | This item has not been graded. | |||||
