This BBC article is really interesting. The BBC have asked people to explain in three words how they will know when the recession is over. There are some really good ideas like ‘selling my house’ and ‘jobs for graduates’. This would be a really good starter activity in the new academic year. It could be used to start the Year 12 students off on macroeconomic topics.

Any good suggestions from blog readers?

Here are two

“Skips appear outside” “Peston takes holiday”
