When, why, and where do you feel most comfortable? How far does your sense of home transcend multiple eras, locations, and scales? We predict that we would receive a wide range of responses to these questions given the variety of experiences of home in the modern world and the intricacy of home as a theoretical construct. Some people may allude to the actual architecture of their home or place of residence, while others may discuss links or relationships spanning both location and time. Home may evoke either happy or bad emotions in you, or perhaps a combination of the two. Your early memories, coupled with your Downloaded by Eugene Jimenez (eumarjim2288@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|30354131 current circumstances and aspirations for the future, may have had a significant impact on how you feel about home. ‘Home’ is a significant geographical and social concept. It is not only a three-dimensional structure, a shelter, but it is also a matrix of social relations and has wide symbolic and ideological meanings; home can be feelings of belonging or of alienation; feelings of home can be stretched across the world, connected to a nation or attached to a house; the spaces and imaginaries of home are central to the construction of people’s identities. (Alison Blunt, Robyn Dowling) ECONOMICS What Is Economics? Economics is a social science that focuses on the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services, and analyzes the choices that individuals, businesses, governments, and nations make to allocate resources. Economists examine how resources are distributed for production, distribution, and consumption on the premise that humans have limitless demands in a world of finite resources. While macroeconomics focuses on the behavior of the economy as a whole on an aggregate level, microeconomics focuses on the decisions made by individuals and enterprises. TWO BRANCHES OF ECONOMICS 1. Microeconomics 2. Macroeconomics Microeconomics Microeconomics examines the resource allocation choices made by businesses and individual consumers. Economists can examine how a single person, a household, or a firm responds to price changes and why they want what they do at specific price levels. Downloaded by Eugene Jimenez (eumarjim2288@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|30354131 Microeconomics examines how and why prices of things vary, how people manage their money, and how they trade, coordinate, and collaborate. Macroeconomics The area of economics known as macroeconomics focuses on the operation and behavior of an economy as a whole. Its main areas of interest are broad economic growth and development as well as periodic economic cycles. Foreign trade, governmental fiscal and monetary policy, unemployment rates, the rate of inflation, interest rates, the expansion of total production output, and economic cycles that cause expansions, booms, recessions, and depressions are the main topics of discussion. Macroeconomic models are used by economists to develop economic policies and strategies by using aggregate indicators. IMPORTANCE OF HOME ECONOMICS A person can create a realistic household budget, plan and prepare wholesome meals, select a fabric for draperies, and take care of a young infant with the aid of a basic understanding of home economics. The field of home economics has significantly expanded in recent years. It now encompasses topics of both international and national interest. Home economics is crucial to the development of nations. Family health is essential to the expansion and development of any society. This is how home economics plays a crucial role in raising the standard of living and enhancing the well-being of an individual and their family. As a teacher, I think that students need to learn about home economics in order to form an attitude toward the standards of their lifestyle. They will be aware of what they should and shouldn't do to maintain a healthy and dangerous family status. Home economics is the promotion of an individual's well-being. This topic aids in the advancement of human progress because it covers important concepts related to food, clothing, house, and family. Human advancement is necessary for society to advance.
