This is a lesson plan that would work in either World History or Geography. It focuses on the oil distribution in Asia but could be used to analyze other areas. I think that this is an important resource as it demonstrates how economics can be taught within the content areas. It is a role-playing activity that provides students with the opportunity to learn about economics with various learning styles.

This is webpage is useful when teaching about the interconnectivity of the economies among the countries of the world. The lesson focuses on the World Trade Organization and advantages and disadvantages of a global market. The lesson would be useful in Government and World History where globalization is often discussed. The webpage offers a long unit plan as well as ideas for a compressed unit that will be a useful guide for planning.

This is a great lesson idea for teaching about the differences between industrialized and third world countries. The major objective of the lesson is to have students recognize the difference in the quality of life among countries, especially between poorer countries in Africa and the United States/Canada. This could be used in our electives like Sociology or World History. It is a webpage from the government of Canada, enjoy!!

A wonderful lesson idea on international trade that is great for World History, United States History, or Government. It focuses on reasons why various countries trade and key members of the trade community, as well on key concepts of international trade (comparative advantage and economic interdependence). I like that it includes activities on NATO and other major trade organizations. It includes several activities, but you would not have to do all of the activities to teach the lesson.
