    A closer look at Economics.

    01

    What we can work on together

    Apply an economic model to a specific context, then evaluate how assumptions and competing effects influence the conclusion. Identify the change, draw or describe a relevant model and follow the causal chain. End by explaining a condition under which the outcome could differ.

    02

    Match practice to your course

    Cambridge International AS & A Level and other awarding bodies’ A levels have different specifications. Share the board, subject code, components and exam session. An AS-only course should not be treated as an entire A level.

    03

    Make the lesson fit your school work in Hong Kong

    For tutoring in Hong Kong, begin with the qualification rather than the school year alone. Students in the same year may take IB, IGCSE, A-level or HKDSE courses. Bring the current guide and recent feedback so the lesson follows your own pathway. Bring an attempted question so your tutor can see how you reason, then agree what to practise next.

    Understand it. Try it. Review it.

    Put your economics learning into practice.

    Worked example · Economics: scarcity, demand and opportunity cost

    A student can spend an evening working for 30 currency units or attending a free concert. What is one opportunity cost of choosing the concert?

    1. Time is scarce, so both activities cannot be chosen for that evening.
    2. The next best alternative is the paid work.
    3. The foregone earnings are 30 currency units, assuming that work was the next best alternative. The concert being free does not remove opportunity cost.
    Common mistakes to check
    • Treating opportunity cost as every possible alternative added together
    • Confusing a movement along demand with a shift of demand
