Macroeconomics is concerned with the operation of the economy as a whole, with attention paid to such things as unemployment, inflation, and interest rates, determination of the level of national income, savings and investment, and the exchange rate and the current account of the balance of payments. The course develops a consistent model of the economy to explore the interactions of key macroeconomic markets and variables and to examine the impacts of different kinds of shocks to the economy and the role of government budgetary and monetary policy in influencing the level of economic activity.

Exams will be held remotely through the Class Wattle Site. A stable and reliable internet connection is necessary. The exact format and further details about the exams will be provided on Wattle two weeks prior to the exams.

Bernanke, Ben, Nilss Olekalns, Robert Frank, Kate Antonovics, and Ori Heffetz, Principles of Macroeconomics, 5th edition, Sydney: McGraw Hill, 2019. Copies of this book have been placed on 2-hour loan in the Chifley library. An online version of the textbook is also available through the ANU library website.

You should try to stay abreast of current events and regularly read the business and economics sections of leading newspapers and magazines (The Economist, Financial Times, Australian Financial Review, the Guardian, etc.)

ANU is committed to the demonstration of educational excellence and regularly seeks feedback from students. Students are encouraged to offer feedback directly to their Course Convener or through their College and Course representatives (if applicable). The feedback given in these surveys is anonymous and provides the Colleges, University Education Committee and Academic Board with opportunities to recognise excellent teaching, and opportunities for improvement. The Surveys and Evaluation website provides more information on student surveys at ANU and reports on the feedback provided on ANU courses.

Workshops this semester will be delivered both remotely (via Zoom) and on-campus. You are expected to attend one workshop each week from Week 2 onwards. You must enrol in a workshop using the Wattle site for this course, and attend the workshop in which you are enrolled. A selection of workshops will be open for enrolment prior to the beginning of the semester - the remaining workshops will be open in week 1 of the Semester.?When workshops are available for enrolment, follow these steps:

Marks that are allocated during Semester are to be considered provisional until formalised by the College examiners meeting at the end of each Semester. If appropriate, some moderation of marks might be applied prior to final results being released.

10% of the overall course grade are awarded for workshop and Discussion Forum participation (achievement). Hence, students are strongly encouraged to attend the workshops and Discussion Forum on Wattle.

In addition, workshops for this course are discussion-based. Students who, through unavoidable and unplanned occurrences, are unable to attend a workshop one week are encouraged to work through the problems and attend a consultation session for discussion and solutions.

Tutors will evaluate students' demonstration of the learning outcomes 1, 2, 3, and 4 described in the class summary. 1 mark for demonstration of complete understanding of those learning outcomes; 0.5 marks for demonstration of partial attainment; and 0 marks for demonstration of no attainment. It means you can get a maximum of 1 mark per topic discussed in the Discussion Forum or per workshop if your discussion shows a complete understanding of the above learning outcomes. The overall participation mark, which makes up 10% of the overall course grade, will be the arithmetic average of the 10 highest marks obtained in the Discussion Forum and the 11 workshops. You are encouraged to actively participate in both as you will have more chances to get more marks. However, you can get full marks (10) by only doing one of them; for example, you can get 10 marks from 10 topics in the Discussion Forum or 10 workshops.

A mid-term exam will be held during the ANU mid-semester exam period. The exam will be delivered online via the Wattle Class Site.

The exam involves multiple-choice questions (MCQ), short and longer style questions/answers. The length of the exam is probably 3 hours (plus reading time). Further details will be given on Wattle two weeks prior to the exam.

The quiz will be available with at least 2 days notice and be open for a period of 3 days. However, you will only have approx. 30 minutes to complete the quiz and you can only attempt the quiz once. There will be instructions at the beginning of the quiz. Make sure you read them thoroughly before commencing.

The final exam is compulsory to attend and will count 40% to your final grade. The exam involves multiple-choice questions (MCQ), short and longer style questions/answers. The length of the exam is probably 3 hours (plus reading time). Further details will be given on Wattle two weeks prior to the exam.

Academic integrity is a core part of the ANU culture as a community of scholars. At its heart, academic integrity is about behaving ethically, committing to honest and responsible scholarly practice and upholding these values with respect and fairness.

The Academic Misconduct Rule is in place to promote academic integrity and manage academic misconduct. Very minor breaches of the academic integrity principle may result in a reduction of marks of up to 10% of the total marks available for the assessment. The ANU offers a number of online and in person services to assist students with their assignments, examinations, and other learning activities. Visit the Academic Skills website for more information about academic integrity, your responsibilities and for assistance with your assignments, writing skills and study.
