IB Economics Unit 3 Macroeconomics COMPLETE BUNDLE | 16 Lesson Pairs | CBCI

This bundle provides the complete Unit 3 Macroeconomics teaching sequence for IB Diploma Economics (2022 syllabus). Sixteen lesson pairs (32 documents) cover the entire unit from introductory macroeconomics through to the complete policy synthesis — leaving no syllabus gaps. Every lesson includes a matched student resource and teacher guide. The student resources follow a consistent 80-minute four-phase structure: a real-world hook, two phases of collaborative pair and small-group exploration, a structured whole-class synthesis, and a silent individual application with two differentiated options. The teacher guides include a full CBCI framework with Transfer Goal and three-level understanding table, complete model responses for every task and discussion question, common errors with named mechanisms and corrections, probing questions formatted for classroom circulation, an ATL skills table, and a bridge to the next lesson. Lessons included: - 3.0 — How the Economic Machine Works (Ray Dalio anchor, circular flow, interdependence) - 3.1a — GDP, GNI & National Income Measurement (three approaches, expenditure formula) - 3.1b — Real GDP, PPP, the Business Cycle & Limits of GDP (alternative well-being measures) - 3.2a — Aggregate Demand (components, determinants, shifts, output gaps; 2008 crisis anchor) - 3.2b — Aggregate Supply & Keynesian vs Monetarist Debate (SRAS, LRAS, Keynesian AS, both equilibria; Great Depression anchor) - 3.3a — Economic Growth & Unemployment (actual/potential, PPC, unemployment types, NRU, costs) - 3.3b — Inflation, Deflation & the CPI (demand-pull, cost-push, HL weighted index; Zimbabwe and Japan) - 3.3c — Policy Conflicts & the Phillips Curve (four conflicts, HL government debt, SRPC, LRPC, NAIRU) - 3.4a — Measuring Inequality & Poverty (Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient, MPI, HL quintile data) - 3.4b — Causes, Impacts & Policies (eight causes, taxation types, UBI, HL tax calculations) - 3.5a — Monetary Policy Mechanics (transmission mechanism, real interest rates, HL money creation and tools) - 3.5b — Monetary Policy Effectiveness (ZLB, confidence, time lags; Japan case study) - 3.6a — Fiscal Policy Mechanics (Keynesian vs monetarist diagrams, HL multiplier; UK austerity) - 3.6b — Fiscal Policy Effectiveness (automatic stabilisers, HL crowding out; Japan fiscal deficits) - 3.7a — Supply-Side Policies: The Policy Menu (market-based and interventionist; Chile vs South Korea) - 3.7b — Supply-Side Effectiveness & Policy Synthesis (complete monetary-fiscal-supply-side framework; UK vs Germany productivity) HL content is integrated into lessons rather than segregated. Resources use strict IB terminology throughout and are written in British English. The word "diagram" is used exclusively — in line with IB examination conventions. The CBCI framework in every teacher guide moves students from factual knowledge (definitions, diagrams, formulae) through conceptual understanding (transferable generalisations about how economies function) to transfer tasks (applying understanding to unfamiliar real-world contexts). This mirrors the assessment structure of IB Papers 1, 2, and 3. Real-world anchors used across the bundle include: Ray Dalio's economic machine, the 2008 global financial crisis, the Great Depression, Zimbabwe's hyperinflation, Japan's deflationary decades and fiscal stimulus, the Bank of England's rate decisions, UK austerity, Chile's liberalisation, South Korea's industrial policy, and the UK–Germany productivity divergence. Suitable for: IB Diploma Economics, DP1 and DP2, Standard Level and Higher Level. Designed for 80-minute lessons with collaborative pair and small-group activities, adaptable for Google Classroom, Canvas, and Managebac environments.
