Objectives
The student learns how to structure and analyse information. This happens concretely by means of the course book, completed with a limited number of articles and videos. We also search for information on the internet.
The educational practice learns again and again that the students mention an insight in economic connections as the most difficult side of the general economy.
Nevertheless everyone becomes surrounded with it now as well as in the future professional live. Therefore the course tries to span a bridge between the economic theory and the topicality.
The student works with "cents and percentages" by means of in the book included exercises.
Because of this the arithmetical skills, the thinking-and reasoning skills, the self study and the decisiveness are stimulated.
