AP微觀經濟學系列講座第二單元：需求與供給

This course is the second in a series of six that together cover the complete Microeconomics curriculum outlined by the College Board for the AP exam. By dividing the curriculum into six mini-courses, students have the flexibility to either complete the full AP Microeconomics sequence or focus on specific units where they need additional support (if they are concurrently enrolled in a microeconomics course at their high school and require extra help).

The AP Microeconomics curriculum includes 6 units: 
UNIT 1: Basic Economic Concepts 
UNIT 2: Supply and Demand 
UNIT 3: Production, Cost, and the Perfect Competition Model 
UNIT 4: Imperfect Competition 
UNIT 5: Factor Markets 
UNIT 6: Market Failure and the Role of Government 

This course will focus on Unit 2-Supply and Demand. This unit represents 20–25% AP Exam Weighting.  Throughout this course, students will engage with economic theory and develop the skills to create, interpret, and apply economic models and graphs effectively.

Unit2 will cover the following topics: 
2.1 Demand and price elasticity of demand
2.2 Supply and price elasticity of supply
2.3 Other elasticities
2.4 Market Equilibrium and Consumer and Producer Surplus 
2.5 Market Disequilibrium and Changes in Equilibrium 
2.6 The Effects of Government Intervention in Markets 
2.7 International Trade and Public Policy 

The learning approach combines a lecture in which the theoretical background of the topic is presented (lesson 1 of the week), followed by applications (lesson 2 of the week) with a focus on problem-solving (practical exercises, case studies, additional readings).
