Review Elasticity Coefficients so they aren’t such a stretch

02/02/202105/27/2016 by admin

The 2015 and 2016 Microeconomics exams both had FRQ’s focused on elasticity and calculating elasticity coefficients. Some of my own students felt inadequately prepared to tackle these tough questions. In an attempt to make sure that doesn’t happen again, I have created the elasticity review along with a 15 question activity to test your skills. With a little luck it will provide you with everything you need to know about elasticity so you don’t get caught off guard when the AP Exam rolls around in May.

I would like to acknowledge the work of Dick Brunelle and Steven Reff from Reffonomics.com whose work inspired many of the review games on this site. I would also like to thank Francis McMann, James Chasey, and Steven Reff who taught me how to be an effective AP Economics teacher at AP summer institutes; as well as the countless high school teachers, and college professors from the AP readings, economics Facebook groups, and #econtwitter.
