All the details of inflation    July 18, 2011
By: Lynde, M
Inflation is a complex subject and this is a fairly complex video. The real life shopping stories make is manageable but I think a pre viewing guide of terms and definitions would help students stay anchored to the discussion. This lesson does a very nice job in covering what is a very complex subject.
