Synopsis

This is the teacher's pack for Advanced A Level Economics. It consists of a plaxtic wallet containing the student's book and 64 pages of photocopiable model answers.;This work covers the post-Common Core data handling requirements of all the A Level Board's new syllabuses - a traditionally difficult and poorly understood section of the papers. The material is suitable for all candidates preparing for A Level Economics, Scottish Higher Economics and GNVQ Business Levels II/III.;The student book is designed to cater for the elementary statistical and numerical skills required at a higher level for the increased awareness of contemporary economic issues. The first part of the book contains sections on how to approach data, what data is for, seasonal adjustment, use of index numbers and a review of how economic indicators such as inflation and unemployment are measured and presented in government publications.;The bulk of the book is made up of over 40 typical A Level data response questions drawn from a wide range of contemporary sources, with associated full model answers. The questions are tightly focused, practical and relevant to everyday life.;The presentation and interpretation of data nowadays has much greater importance in Economics syllabuses and an understanding of its principles is no longer confined to the data response paper, but is integrated throughout the examination.;The questions in Data Response cover the entire A Level syllabus, with particular emphasis on the Common Core.
