Unit 3 for OCR GCSE Economics concentrates on global economic issues, one of these being international trade. The examination is based around a pre-released case study on these issues. It is always good to use video’s to capture students interest and this one is no exception

This video and article gives an interesting insight into how the global recession is affecting the Chinese export market.
This would be a great starter when discussing a whole host of macroeconomic issues.
