It precisely follows the Economics syllabus set out in the IB guide.</p><h4>Inquiry based approach</h4><p>An important theme of the new IB Economics specification is inquiry based learning. Looking at Economics through prism of exciting real world examples that truly bring the subject to life. This book aims to give students the knowledge and skills to be able to investigate, understand and debate the issues of real world Economics. An example of the textbook's inquiry based approach is set out below.</p><h4><strong>Examination practice questions</strong></h4><p>All the inquiry case examples come with examination style questions written in the Economics IB format. This includes the approach used in the paper 1 (essay paper), paper 2 (data response paper) and paper 3 (policy paper). All the questions come with markscheme answers that use a 'scaffolding' approach to guide students when they are answering questions. An example of IB examination style questions from the textbook is set out below.</p></div><div class="pinkBg"><div class="panel" style="box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 19, 0.3) 0px 10px 30px -15px; border-color: rgb(39, 45, 105);"><div class="panel-heading" style="background-color: rgb(39, 45, 105);"><a class="expander pull-right" href="#"><span class="fa fa-plus"></span></a><div><h4><strong>Sample inquiry case example - The falling price of the mobile phone</strong></h4></div></div><div class="panel-footer" style="background-color: rgba(39, 45, 105, 0.1);"><div><p>text</p></div></div></div><h4><img alt="" height="205" src="/media/ib/economics/images/textbook/inquiry-case-example-questions/mobile-phone-demand.jpg" style="float: right;" width="487" /></h4><p>The price of mobile phones has fallen dramatically since they were first released onto the consumer market in the United States in the early 1980s.

In the case example, the company may have been looking to produce cheaper energy in the present by not considering the impact of their activities on the local environment in Hinkley, California. The long term consequences of the pollution produced by the plant would have had a devastating health effect on future generations if action was not taken to regulate them.</p><p><strong>Do you think people are happy to pay more for their energy now if it means not negatively affecting future generations?</strong></p></div></div></div><h4></h4><h4><strong>Chapter structure</strong></h4><p><img alt="" height="360" src="/media/ib/economics/images/textbook/introduction/chapter-structure.jpg" style="float: left;" width="246" />Each chapter in this online textbook follows the same structure as the IB Economics guide and comprehensively covers each section of the syllabus.</p><p><strong>The format of each chapter is set out as:</strong></p><ul><li>What you should have learned by the end of this chapter</li><li>Revision material</li><li>Contents of each chapter in the form of key economic terms, economic theory and concepts, graphical analysis, policy issues and evaluative arguments</li><li>Inquiry based case examples.</li></ul></div><script>document.querySelectorAll('.tib-teacher-only').forEach(e => e.remove());</script><section id="selected-pages"><h1>Selected Pages</h1><ul class="resources"><li class="item"><div class="img-container"><img src="https://teacher-sites-storage-thumbnails.inthinking.net/ib/economics/images/textbook/governments-and-markets/new-york-city.png" class="thumb thumb-cover" /></div><div class="media-body"><h4 style="margin-top: 0;"><a href="economics/page/33424/unit-272-governments-in-markets-price-controls"><span style="font-size: 0.9em;">Unit 2.7(2): Governments in markets - price controls</span></a></h4><p>In free markets where there is no government intervention, the price and output in a market are determined by demand and...</p></div></li><li class="item"><div class="img-container"><img src="https://teacher-sites-storage-thumbnails.inthinking.net/ib/economics/images/textbook/ad-and-as/interest-rates.png" class="thumb thumb-cover" /></div><div class="media-body"><h4 style="margin-top: 0;"><a href="economics/page/34485/unit-321-variations-in-economic-activity-aggregate-demand-ad-"><span style="font-size: 0.9em;">Unit 3.2(1): Variations in economic activity - aggregate demand (AD) </span></a></h4><p>The level of economic activity measured by the real GDP of a country is determined by the interaction of aggregate demand...</p></div></li><li class="item"><div class="img-container"><img src="https://teacher-sites-storage-thumbnails.inthinking.net/ib/economics/images/textbook/international/erates.jpg" class="thumb thumb-cover" /></div><div class="media-body"><h4 style="margin-top: 0;"><a href="economics/page/35413/unit-46-balance-of-payments-"><span style="font-size: 0.9em;">Unit 4.6 Balance of payments </span></a></h4><p>The balance of payments (BOP) is an account that records the inflow (credit items) and outflow (debit items) of funds to...</p></div></li><li class="item"><div class="img-container"><img src="https://teacher-sites-storage-thumbnails.inthinking.net/ib/economics/images/general-2/ib-ee.png" class="thumb thumb-cover" /></div><div class="media-body"><h4 style="margin-top: 0;"><a href="economics/page/1583/extended-essay">Extended essay</a></h4><p>The following page is designed for students as a guide to writing the extended essay in economics.Many of you will be aware...</p></div></li><li class="item"><div class="img-container"><img src="https://teacher-sites-storage-thumbnails.inthinking.net/ib/economics/images/general-2/11174827_10203121103463320_7438092698115357360_n.jpg" class="thumb thumb-cover" /></div><div class="media-body"><h4 style="margin-top: 0;"><a href="economics/page/21411/using-the-ee-markbands-"><span style="font-size: 0.9em;">Using the EE markbands </span></a></h4><p>The extended essay criteria contains a range of different indicators for each level.
