(Economic Growth & the AD/AS Model)
(July 2015)
Unit Statement: The student will learn about economic growth and the AD-AS model.
He/she will examine the sources and consequences of growth. The student will also examine

progress is essential in this unit as well. Economic growth is an essential idea in economics
and this class.
Essential Outcomes: (must be assessed for mastery)
1. The Student Will compare economies across space and time using real GDP per
capita.
2. TSW explain how progress in physical capital, human capital and technological
progress relate to productivity and long-run economic growth.
3. TSW explain the importance of sustainability as related to economic growth.
4. TSW explain the slope of the aggregate demand curve.
5. TSW explain the slope of the short-run and long-run aggregate supply curves.
6. TSW identify short-run and long-run macroeconomic equilibrium.
7. TSW diagram and explain supply and demand shocks using the AD-AS model.
8. TSW define and apply Key Terms and Concepts.
Key Terms and Concepts:
Productivity
Physical capital
Human capital
Aggregate demand curve
Long-run aggregate supply curve
Supply shock
AD-AS model
Long-run macroeconomic equilibrium
Recessionary gap
Inflationary gap
Aggregate supply curve
