This course is designed to provide or refamiliarise students with basic knowledge required to successfully undertake macroeconomic related courses in the IDEC program, including IDEC8002 Macroeconomic Analysis and Policy and Open Economy, Finance and Development (IDEC8008). As a preparatory course, the class environment will be structured to help students become familiar with the ANU teaching environment, resources available to students, and requirements of formal coursework. An objective of the course is to provide students with an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses in macroeconomics and help provide a strategy for students to improve on any weaknesses. In-class exercises are an important component of teaching in the course. Student participation in discussion of issues in macroeconomics and study at ANU more broadly is also highly encouraged. The course introduces students to basic topics in macroeconomics and economic growth and provides students with basic analytical tools to understand theoretical concepts and undertake policy analysis.
The ANU uses Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. While the use of Turnitin is not mandatory, the ANU highly recommends Turnitin is used by both teaching staff and students. For additional information regarding Turnitin please visit the ANU Online website.
