For homework, please have a look at both of the articles distributed in class today. Look up all of the words you don't know and select at least 10 to add to your active vocabulary.
Since vocab is going to be tested on the exam, I suggest establishing some way of keeping track of vocab this semester (e.g. in the form of a Vokabelheft or flashcards).
"Economics A-Z" is a wonderful resource to use this semester: https://www.economist.com/economics-a-to-z
And the Cambridge English in Use Advanced Business Vocabulary workbook is also great for practice.
I'll be offering the opportunity to submit essays electronically all semester. These essays must be submitted by Friday at noon and have gone through a spell and grammar check in order to be evaluated. Essays are not required, but they are good practice for the exam. Your first essay is to write a press release on behalf of Facebook. (These guidelines can help: https://www.theguardian.com/small-business-network/2014/jul/14/how-to-write-press-release )
