This activity involves four scenarios where the students will uncover the opportunity costs for each scenario (every decision involves a trade-off). The opportunity cost is the profit lost (or total cost- financial and non-financial costs) when one alternative is chosen over another. A trade-off is understanding that you are going to lose something, in relation to time, money, or energy, when the decision to choose something else is made.  When you buy or do one thing with your money, you must give up the chance to buy or do something else. This is a trade-off: what you give up to get what you want. When you spend part of your income on certain things, you give up spending it on other things.

A shortage or surplus of the goods we buy can have a significant impact on the prices we pay. Since the goods we buy are often made up of other goods, it’s common for a shortage or surplus anywhere in the supply chain to have a significant impact on the market. In this activity you will demonstrate shortages and surpluses, analyze what happens when they occur, and discuss how they can impact our daily lives.

A product’s unit price can be helpful in comparison shopping, making sure you’re not paying more money for less of a product. But did you know that you should also be comparing the products you buy to...themselves?! Making products smaller while keeping the price the same is a sneaky way of raising prices. In this activity you’ll discuss how shrinkflation affects consumers and create your own plan to downsize a product in hopes that consumers won’t notice the difference.

Economic cycles have risen and fallen over the past 100 years, in a somewhat predictable fashion behaving like a wave with periods of: peak, trough, recession, recovery. An economic expansion is a term sometimes used for the increasing growth period of the business cycle. The peak is when it is at its highest point. An economic contraction is a term sometimes used for the downturn (negative growth) of the business cycle. The trough is when it is at its lowest point. All of these points in an economic cycle have important impacts on financial decision making.Many individuals make emotional decisions based on where an economic cycle may be, instead of looking a rational evidence of where the economic cycle might be going. Attached with these handouts is a document titled "Reasons Why Investors Avoided The Stock Market" which shows many major negative events, followed by tremendous growth in the economy. If individuals understand these normal economic cycles, they can really benefit financially through investments and sound financial decision making.

In the past, students were given a mark of zero for:
 Incomplete homework  Late assignments  Missing assignments  Non participation in class activity  Cheating

Problems with this Practice:
 A mark of zero is often an inadequate reflection of student learning.  A zero is skews the overall average for the negative (outlier).  A zero is often given to as a consequence for learning behaviours, not a learning outcome, essentially serving as a punishment for infractions. (T. Guskey)  Although often intended to motivate students, a zero can have the opposite effect on students, instead causing some student to give up.  If a grade or mark is intended to provide information about performance, a zero offers no feedback or suggestions for improvement.

The dedicated team at Anxiety.org is committed to making mental health information accessible, inclusive, easy-to-find, and easy-to-understand. We want anyone suffering from an anxiety disorder to have access to all the resources they need to understand and overcome their condition. This website provides the latest and most relevant information by working directly with distinguished doctors, therapists, scientists, and specialists to keep you on the cutting-edge of research and advancements in the field, while keeping our content approachable for the average reader. Our goal is to bridge the understanding gap that exists between mental health professionals and those actually dealing with anxiety disorders.
Hundreds of millions of people worldwide have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder or related mood or mental health issue. In fact, some studies have estimated the number to be over 1 billion! And the majority of those diagnosed or struggling with an anxiety disorder don't receive treatment or have access to the information, treatment, or tools they need during their journey to recovery. Anxiety.org is there to provide support to people no matter what their environment or economic status.
It is not surprising that there are over four million monthly Internet searches worldwide on anxiety-related terms. Some of these searches come from undiagnosed individuals seeking basic knowledge about what they are experiencing; others come from diagnosed persons looking for specific information and guidance; and still others come from individuals seeking understanding and advice regarding a family member, loved one, or close friend who is dealing with anxiety. For people with these conditions, the isolating nature and stigma associated with anxiety disorders has been a significant obstacle to seeking professional treatment. Anxiety.org allows anxiety sufferers the ability to seek help anonymously and conveniently.
We have partnered with hundreds of schools, institutions, researchers and clinicians, experienced therapists, and other mental health and wellness experts. All the donations received, as well as 100% of Anxiety.org revenue in 2016, will be used to fund grants to universities, clinics, and research institutions.
