1 FALL 2017 SYLLABUS Weekly Lesson Plans for Dr. Schiller Week of August 28-September 1, 2017 Monday, August 28, 2017: REGULAR DAY SCHEDULE: Period 1: 8:00 am am Nutrition: 9.38 am - 9:48 am Period 2: 9:54 am - 11:24 am Period 3: 11:30 am - 1:00 pm Lunch: 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm Period 4: 1:36 pm - 3:06 pm AP Macroeconomics: Due Monday: Watch the very short podcast "Introduction to Economics" [ 1IntroductiontoEconomics.html] and take notes on the definition of economics and scarcity. Afterwards, take the 3 question quiz and write down the answers to the 3 questions. Watch the very short podcast "Trade-off versus Opportunity Cost" [ reffonomics.com/1opportunitycost.html] and take notes. Afterwards, take the 3 question quiz and write down the answer ot the three questions. Every day must bring all supplies to class every day, and your manual when it comes (not the textbook) WARMUP: Hand back quizzes 1. What is the definition of scarcity? limited and desirable 2. What is opportunity cost? the forgone cost and the next valued alternative given up 3. What are the three macroeconomic goals of the economy? full employment, economic growth growth, and price stability 4. What is the difference between a stock and a flow? a stock is a measure at a particular moment in time, a flow is a measure over time 5. What is the definition of disinflation? still have inflation but less than before e.c. What are trade-offs? all the things you could have done Grade, go over, and collect quiz Continue DO YOU THINK LIKE AN ECONOMIST? Decide Whether Each Of The Following Statements Is Either True Or False Discuss all of them are false 5. If the price for riding mass transportation goes up, everyone will ride it anyway.

2 Concerns law of supply and demand: People tend to buy more of something when the price is lower and less when the price is higher You have alternatives: walk, bike, uber, carpool, move closer to work, etc. Question 5 is false because, if all other things are equal, less mass transportation will be purchased if the price is higher. The price could be increased in terms of dollars, inconvenient schedules, crime and filthy cards 6. The more useful the good, the higher the price. Concerns the laws of supply and demand The price of something depends on supply and demand, not on usefulness or on some criterion of quality Water is more useful than diamonds, but it has a lower price What you pay for a good or service depends on the market price determined by supply and demand. 7. If someone makes an economic gain, someone else loses. Concerns gains from trade When people trade voluntarily, both parties expect to gain, or they wouldn t trade 8. If the Mexico produces everything better than the U.S., there is no economic reason for the two nations to trade. One reason for this gain is the law of comparative advantage If one person does legal work better than another and if a second person word-processes documents better than the first they would gain by trade. But would a lawyer who is the fastest work processor in town hire a secretary? Yes, because of comparative advantage: each person would specialize in what he does comparatively better. An hour spent word processing is an hour not spent in legal work and the opportunity cost for the lawyer is very high. The lawyer will specialize in legal work and the secretary in word processing. The total output of g and s will increase This concept can be applied to countries. 9 A non-regulated monopoly can charge whatever price it wants. Concerns business and the role of profits A monopoly charges a higher price than a competitive market price, but the monopolist cannot repeal the law of demand. If the price is too high, the monopolist might sell nothing A monopolist will try to establish a price at a point that will make the greatest profit. This price is higher than a competitive price and will result in less production 10. Most businesses don t care about consumers; they just want higher profits. Concerns business and the role of profits Profits are an incentive for business to succeed. A business that doesn t care about its customers will not make high profits. Key terms we learned from discussing the above: scarcity has two part: must be limited and must be desirable opportunity cost the next best alternative that you didn t choose out-of-pocket costs money that you pay; but opportunity costs can include loss of time and loss of money you could have been making doing something else

3 zero-sum game where someone has to lose and someone has to win/a "win-lose" win-win belief by economists that both people can win; they don t believe that if someone wins, someone else has to lose law of comparative advantage it is better for two nations to specialize and trade, even if one nation is better at making both things David Ricardo the economist who came up with the law of comparative advantage Adam Smith the economist who came up with the idea of the invisible hand and wanted laissezfaire--governments to leave business alone! Discuss and remember: opportunity cost is more than simply out-of-pocket expenses nominal GDP is measured in current dollars and real GDP is measured in constant dollars (i.e. the inflation is removed) e.g. means for example/i.e. means that it or in other words types of economies at far left, free-market economy where the market makes all the decisions; at the far right, command economy where the government makes all the decisions, in middle is mixed market where government gets involved in certain social objectives that markets can t achieve what we call "communism" is really "totalitarian socialism" every economy must answer these three questions: 1. what will be produced? 2. how will it be produced? 3. for whom will it be produced in a free-market economy, the market answers the three questions in a command economy, the government answers the three questions AP US Government and Politics: Must bring all supplies and covered textbook to class every day Due tomorrow: Read and take notes on required Foundational Document 5: The Constitution of the United States (including the Bill of Rights) [ Due Thursday: chapter 3 of Wilson WARMUP: Hand back quiz and Chapter 2 notes on Wilson 1. What was Shay's Rebellion? In MA, in January 1787 a group of ex-revolutionary War soldiers and officers, plagued by debts and high taxes and fearful of losing their property to creditors and tax collectors, forcibly prevented the courts in western Massachusetts from sitting. National government had no troops. 2. What were the two key features of the Virginia Plan? 1) national legislature with supreme powers on all maters on which the separate state were not competent to act and power to veto any and all states laws, and 2) at least one house of the legislature elected directly by the people

4 3. What was the New Jersey plan? amend Articles of Confederation to make stronger government and keep one vote per state 4. What was the Great Compromise? plan to have a popularly elected House based on state population and a state-selected Senate, with two members for each state. 5. Give two reasons why the Framers did not originally include a bill of rights in the Constitution? 1) it did contain a number of specific guarantees of individual liberty 2) most states had bills of rights, 3) Framers thought they were creating a government with specific limited powers and if it didn't get it then it was fro the states. e.c. Who were the three people who wrote the Federalist papers? Hamilton, Madison, Jay Grade, go over and collect quiz Take out your copy of the 2014 free-response questions #1, the rubric, and your free-response. Go over the rubric as a class Hand out sample free-responses Read aloud, discuss, and go over grading for the sample free-responses as a class Turn in your free-response Honors Principles of American Democracy: Must bring all supplies and covered textbook to class every day For tomorrow: Read and take notes on Article II of the Constitution, on pages Test on everything so far on Thursday (scantron, multiple choice) WARMUP: Hand back quizzes and notes for Chapter 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 May keep out your Chapter 2.4 notes 1. Which state did not send a delegate to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia? Rhode Island 2.

The Connecticut Compromise (also known as the Great Compromise) was a combination of which two plans? Virginian Plan and New Jersey Plan 5. What was the Three-Fifths Compromise? That slaves would count as 3/5 of a person for purposes of how many representatives in the House of Representatives a state was entitled to e.c. In what year did the Framers sign the Constitution? 1787 Grade, go over, and collect quiz Lecture/discussion of Chapter 2, section 3, p Articles of confederation: weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation: 1. one vote for each state, regardless of size 2. Congress powerless to lay and collect taxes or duties 3. Congress powerless to regulate foreign and interstate commerce 4. No executive to enforce acts of Congress

5 5. No national court system 6. Amendment only with consent of all states 7. a 9/13 majority required to pass laws 8. Articles only a "firm league of friendship "unicameral" -- one house The Critical Period, the 1780s--Shay's Rebellion: no federal army to help put it down A need for stronger government--constitutional Convention held in Philadelphia in 1787 Lecture/discussion of Chapter 2, Section 4 Lecture on other portions of the book not assigned: Federalists liked the Constitution Anti-federalists disliked the Constitution for two main reasons: (1) the greatly increased power of the national government and (2) it didn't have a bill of rights Reasons why the Framers did not put a Bill of Rights into the Constitution: 1. most states already had them 2. the Constitution contained a number of liberties and freedoms 3. Since the Constitution only gave the federal government what was written in theconstitution, then everything else, including the freedoms under a bill of rights, stayed with the people But the states ratified the Constitution only on the promise that a Bill of Rights would be added The Bill of Rights was added in 1791 Basic principles of the Constitution: 1. popular sovereignty 2. limited government 3. separation of powers 4. checks and balances 5. judicial review: the idea that the federal courts could declare an executive order or law unconstitutional. It wasn't in the Constitution but it was declared soon after in a case called Marbury v.

6 Period 3: 10:42 am - 11:49 am Lunch: 11:49 am - 12:19 pm Period 4: 12:25 pm - 1:32 pm AP Macroeconomics: Every day must bring all supplies to class every day, and your manual when it comes (not the textbook) WARMUP: Hand back quizzes No daily quiz today! Discuss key terms: 1. positive economics: can be proven true or false 2. normative economics: opinion, should Go over Another Test of Economic Thinking: True or false? 1. If a country could maintain a high economic growth rate, the country would eventually be able to satisfy everyone s wants for goods and services. False because wants are always greater than resources 2. If all the nations of the world disarmed, the international economy would collapse into a long depression and unemployment would increase. False because people would simply use the resources to produce other goods and services 3. Money is an important economic resource. False because money is not a resource, you *use* it to buy resources "resources" = "factors of production" = "inputs" 3 types of inputs: Resources = factors of production = inputs (i.e. the stuff you use to make output) There are three types of inputs: 1. natural resources (raw materials) ("land") 2. human resources (labor) 3. capital resources (things that human have altered or created, like machines, applesauce, buildings) 4. The higher the GDP, the better off all the people of the country are. False because GDP is not spread around equally 5. Full employment means zero unemployment False because there is always frictional unemployment so there will be at least about 4% unemployment when we have achieved "full employment" 6. The US has had an inflation rate of at least 3% for each of the last 50 years. False because remember this graph:

7 7. Unanticipated inflation hurts almost everyone. False because unanticipated inflation helps borrowers. Go over real interest rate plus anticipated inflation = nominal interest rate go over what happens if there is unanticipated inflation? borrowers "win"/if there is less inflation than anticipated lenders "win" 8. Money consists mainly of currency and coins and is created by government printing presses and mints. False because most of our money is now electric and it is created by real GDP exchanges, not the dollar value of paper and coin money AP US Government and Politics: Must bring all supplies and covered textbook to class every day Due Thursday: chapter 3 of Wilson Due Tuesday: Read and take notes on required Foundational Document 6: Federalist 51: The Structure of the Government Must Furnish the Proper Checks and Balances Between thedifferent Departments Due Wednesday: Read and take notes on the Opinion (not the Syllabus) for required Supreme Court Case 1: McCulloch v.

Lopez (1995) [ ZO.html] Due Friday: Read and take notes on the two Concurrences and the two Dissents for United States v. Lopez (1995) Test on the entire Unit I. Big Idea: Constitutional Democracy on Monday, September 11: scantron and free-response WARMUP: Turn in Constitution and Bill of Rights notes Hand back quizzes and papers 1. Give two reasons why the Framers did not originally include a bill of rights in the Constitution? 1) it did contain a number of specific guarantees of individual liberty 2) most states had bills of rights, 3) Framers thought they were creating a government with specific limited powers and if it didn't get it then it was fro the states. 2. Who were the three people who wrote the Federalist papers? Hamilton, Madison, Jay 3. Which view of government did C. Wright Mills come up with? power elite theory 4. What explains political change? complex and sometimes sudden changes in elite or mass beliefs about what government is supposed to do. 5. What is the key term for whatever gives someone political authority? legitimacy e.c. "We, the people of the United State..." is the beginning of what part of the Constitution? the preamble Grade, go over and collect quiz Take out Wilson and Chapter 2 notes Go over Chapter 2 The Colonists were mostly angry that, without representation in Parliament, they were not being given the rights and liberties due to English citizens The English Constitution is not a single written document but rather a collection of laws, charters, and traditional understands that proclaim and liberties of British subjects. The colonists believed that most politicians tend to be corrupt, which is why the English constitutionenglish was not an adequate guarantee of liberty. Can see how that belief made them suspicious of any strong national government Why doesn't the Constitution mention "God"? Probably because Jefferson and other Enlightenment thinkers were Deists--they believed that once God had set and universe going it ran on its own. Slavery was originally mentioned in and Declaration but to get the southern states to pass it all references to slavery had to be removed Weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation: 1. Congress could not lay or collect taxes 2. Didn't have its own army (Shay's Rebellion showed what a weakness that was!) 3. Could coin only its own money, but it didn't' have any! 4. All 13 states had to agree to amend and Articles Framers met in secret so as not to cause anarchy or early opposition

9 Had the New Jersey Plan (which wanted to amend the Articles) been proposed first then they might have ended up amending the Articles. But the more radical Virginia Plan was proposed first so they threw out the Articles and started again Terms of Virginia Plan: 1. three branches of government (not just one as in the Articles) 2. bicameral legislature--house would be elected by popular vote based on population; Senate would be elected by the representatives in the House 3. Executive and Judiciary to be chosen by the legislature and form a council of revision that could veto act of Congress but the veto could be overridden 4. Congress would be able to veto any and all state laws! Terms of New Jersey Plan: 1. Amend the Articles 2. Expand national government powers but keep one vote per state Great Compromise ("Connecticut Compromise"): 1. A House of Representatives with 65 members elected by the people base don state population 2. A Senate of 2 Senators/state elected by each state's legislature Constitution set up a republic: a representative democracy Problem with democracy is that it is slow "incumbent"--person running for re-election Judicial review wasn't express discussed in the Constitution (came in through Marbury v. Madison)---federal courts have the right to declare law of Congress or executive order of President unconstitutional Constitution only set up Supreme Court by name--congress had rights to set up inferior courts, which were all federal. Federal justices and judges nominate by President and confirmed by Senate; ambassadors too Federalism--dual system of power, federal (central) government has certain powers enumerated (specified) in the Constitution; States had the other powers Honors Principles of American Democracy: Must bring all supplies and covered textbook to class every day Test on everything so far on Thursday (scantron, multiple choice) WARMUP: Turn in notes on Article II of the Constitution Hand back quizzes 1. What are the two main reasons that and Anti-Federalists didn't like the Constitution?i(1) the greatly increased power of the national government and (2) it didn't have a bill of rights 2. Give one reason why the Framers did not originally include a bill of rights in the Constitution? 1) it did contain a number of specific guarantees of individual liberty 2) most states had bills of rights, 3) Framers thought they were creating a government with specific limited powers and if it didn't get it then it was fro the states.

10 3. What is judicial review? the idea that the federal courts could declare an executive order or law unconstitutional. It wasn't in the Constitution but it was declared soon after in a case called Marbury v. Madison. 4. What is federalism? dual power system; central government has certain powers and states have certain other powers 5. What is "diversity jurisdiction"? cases in federal court between citizens of two different states e.c. What is a bill of attainder? law that declares that an action of an individual can be punished without a trial Grade, go over, and collect quiz Framers intended to establish a representative republic (like a representative democracy) The Constitution gives the federal government "enumerated" powers (specifically mentioned) Lecture/discussion of the rest of Article III of the Constitution "jurisdiction" means what cases a court can hear "Original jurisdiction" mean what cases can start in the Supreme Court: 1.cases affecting Ambassadors 2. cases where a State is a party (defendant or plaintiff) for all other cases, the Supreme Court has "appellate jurisdiction", meaning firs the case has to have gone to a lower court, and now someone is challenging the decision in a higher court Treason is when you either made war against the US or helped anenemy of the US Lecture/discussion of Article IV, V and VI of the Constitution Article IV: "full faith and credit" means you won't discriminate against someone from another state Article V: 2 ways to amend the Constitution: 1. need both houses of Congress have to pass the same amendment by a 2/3 majority and 3/4 of the states have ti ratify it by the deadline listed in the amendment, OR 2. if 3/4 of the states vote to hold another Constitutional Convention 3. Article VII: once 9 of the original 13 states had ratified the Constitution, it went into effect Wednesday, August 30, 2017: REGULAR SCHEDULE: Period 1: 8:00 am - 9:38 am Nutrition: 9:38 am - 9:48 am Period 2: 9:54 am - 11:24 am Period 3: 11:30 am - 1:00 pm Lunch: 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm Period 4: 1:36 pm - 3:06 pm AP Macroeconomics: Every day must bring all supplies to class every day, and your manual when it comes (not the textbook) Due tomorrow: Read and take notes on Crash Course Economics Video #2: Specialization and Trade Due Tuesday: 1.

11 Test on Friday, September 8 on everything so far WARMUP: 1. Give an example of a positive economic statement. Any factual statement, whether true or false 2. What kind of an input is a factory? capital resource 3. Name two synonyms for inputs. factors of production and resources 4. Who benefits from unanticipated inflation? borrowers 5. What is the formula for interest rates? real interest rate plus anticipated inflation equals nominal interest rate e.c.what is the definition of scarcity? limited and desirable Grade, go over and collect quiz Go over Another Test of Economic Thinking, continued: 9. The value of the dollar is determined by the fact that it is backed by gold. False because the dollaris no longer backed by gold. In 1973, the United States officially ended its adherence to the gold standard. The U.S. now has a fiat (it's money because the government says it is money) money system, meaning the dollar s value is not linked to any specific asset. It is backed by the full faith and credit of the US. This lets the Fed stimulate or contract the economy by increasing or decreasing the money supply 10. Most economists believe the only purpose of taxes is to provide money for government. False because taxes are a tool used by Congresa and the President to stimulate or contract the eocnomy 11. The chief task of the Federal Reserve System is to insure the deposits of bank customers. False because it is not the Fed that insures bank deposits, but the FDIC. 12. Tariffs are needed to protect our standard of living from competition from cheap foreign labor. As we'll see in the international unit, tariffs hurt consumers View Crash Course: Intro to Economics: v=3ez10adr_gm&feature=youtu.be&list=pl8dpuualjxtpnzwz5_o_5uirj8gqxnheo Start the Basic Circular Flow of the Economy: go over the basic circular flow, where someone's income is someone else's expenditure AP US Government and Politics: Must bring all supplies and covered textbook to class every day Due tomorrow: chapter 3 of Wilson

12 Due Tuesday: Read and take notes on required Foundational Document 6: Federalist 51: The Structure of the Government Must Furnish the Proper Checks and Balances Between thedifferent Departments Due Wednesday: Read and take notes on the Opinion (not the Syllabus) for required Supreme Court Case 1: McCulloch v. Maryland (1819)[ supremecourt/text/17/316#writing-ussc_cr_0017_0316_zo] Due Thursday: Read and take notes on the Opinion (not the Syllabus) for required Supreme Court Case 2: United States v.

Big Idea: Constitutional Democracy on Monday, September 11: scantron and free-response WARMUP: Hand back Constitution and Bill of Rights notes and quizzes 1. Where does it say that Congress shall have the power to do what's necessary and property to carry out its powers? Article I, Section 8 2. How many Senators does it take to approve a treaty the President has signed? two-thirds 3. What is one situation in which the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction? Cases involving Ambassadors or cases where a State is a party 4. Where does the constitution provide that no one shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law? 5th Amendment 5. There are two things with regard to religion that Congress cannot do. What are they? no establishment of religion and no prohibition of the free exercise thereof e.c. When is a Grand Jury required? if someone is charge with a capital or otherwise infamous crime (except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia during time of War or public danger) Grade, go over and collect quiz "original jurisdiction" means that the case starts at the Supreme Court Take out Wilson and Chapter 2 notes Continue going over Chapter 2 Talked about reserved and concurrent powers looked at the list of each branch's checks against the other two branches, on p.29 The Framers were concerned about unchecked self-interest Federalists: pro strong central government Antifederalists: against strong central government; mollified when promised that a Bill of Rights would be aded within a few years of ratification of the Constitution (and it was) went over the liberties guaranteed in the Constitution before the Bill of Rights was added. These include, among other things: 1. cant' suspend habeas corpus (i.e. an order to produce an arrested person before a judge), except during invasion or rebellion 2. no bill of attainder--i.e. a law that punishes someone without a trial

13 3. no ex post facto law--i.e.. a law that makes something illegal before the law was passed In the federal court system, cases (except for those where the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction) start at the District Court level, usually with a jury. The jury is the "finder of fact". An appeal to a higher court can only be for a matter of law, not fact. The federal appellate courts are called the Circuit Courts of Appeal. Appeal from the Circuit Courts goes to the Supreme Court, which gets to decide whether or not to hear the case.

What is "diversity jurisdiction"? cases in federal court between citizens of two different states e.c. What is a bill of attainder? law that declares that an action of an individual can be punished without a trial Grade, go over, and collect quiz Go over Article II of the Constitution: head of executive branch is president and serves a 4-year term with the vice-president Each state has electors to vote for president equal to the number of representatives they have in the House of Representatives plus their two Senators, but they have to be different people. The collection of all states' electors is called the Electoral College

14 Most states give all their electoral votes to the candidate who gets the most votes in that state, so sometimes one candidate can get more of the people's votes but the other candidate gets more electoral votes and therefore wins to be president you have to be a natural born citizen (born in US territory or both your parents are US citizens) and you have to be at least 35 years old and been a resident of the US for at least 14 years. president is commander in chief of the military and also has the power to grant pardon for offenses against the areus except for impeachment can make treaties with consent of 2/3 of the senate and can appoint ambassadors and federal judges with consent of Senate has to give state of the union address can be removed form office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery or other high crimes or misdemeanors Go over the Bill of Rights (first 10 Amendments to the Constitution) A principle underlying the Bill of Rights : Some rights are fundamental and should not be subject to majoritarian control Bill of Rights only applied to federal govenrment First Amendment: "establishment clause"--no official religion "free-exercise clause"--no interfering with anyone's religion freedom of speech freedom of the press (includes internet) freedom to have a peaceful assembly freedom to ask the government to fix thing that are wrong Second Amendment: right to have guns Third Amendment: unimportant Fourth Amendment: can't search someone's house or arrest them without a Warrant can't get a warrant without convincing a federal judge that you have "probably cause" to believe there's a crime Fifth Amendment: must have a Grand Jury indictment for a felony or worse "double-jeopardy clause"--you can't be tried twice for the same crime "taking the 5th"--you can't be forced to answer questions in you think it will help convict you (can't be forced to incriminate yourself) can't be deprived of life, liberty or property without the government following the law ("due process") govenrment can't take your property without paying you a fair price Thursday, August 31, 2017,: REGULAR SCHEDULE: Period 1: 8:00 am - 9:38 am Nutrition: 9:38 am - 9:48 am Period 2: 9:54 am - 11:24 am Period 3: 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
