Features

Expert Author Team
Margaret Ray and David Anderson bring to the text a combined 35 years of experience with AP Economics students and teachers.
 
Close Adherence to the AP Topic Outline and Terminology
Because it closely conforms to the required AP exam course content and vocabulary, this book helps students learn the material and terminology necessary to realize success on the AP exam.
 
AP Course-friendly Organization
The book is divided into 8 sections (macro) and 14 sections (Econ) that correlate to The College Board’s AP Topic Outline.  Each section is further divided into 4–7 modules to break the course material into a pedagogically appropriate units designed to be presented in one class period. This modular organization presents the he required material in a sequence and at a pace designed for optimal success for teachers and students in AP economics classes.
 
Relevant Examples
The Krugman and Wells Economics textbook has long been praised for its use of relevant and interesting examples to teach economic principles. Krugman’s Economics for AP* retains this approach, while modifying, adding, or replacing examples to speak specifically to the high school audience.  For example, in the AP texr, a “real cost” example in the college textbook that focuses on students choosing their courses becomes an example based on high school students selecting a college to attend.
 
Practice for the AP Exam
Each module concludes with AP review material including sample AP-style multiple choice and free response questions. In addition, a final module in both the macro and micro sections called,  “Putting it All Together”, shows students how to use the economic principles they have learned to answer comprehensive questions like the ones typically found on the AP exam.
 
Media and Supplements
Margaret Ray, in collaboration with experienced AP readers/teachers, Eric Dodge  (Hanover College) and David Mayer (Churchill High School, San Antonio), have developed an extensive supplements package to support the text. The instructor’s resources are designed to serve and support both new and experienced teachers. The student’s resources focus on achieving success in the course and on the AP exam. All supplement materials are developed to adhere to the AP course outline, goals, and testing format.
