Your task is to provide a current event type of assignment to demonstrate your understanding of the concepts we learned about in this unit in daily life. This could be a news story that you heard or read, or it could be a conversation you had with someone or it could be something you saw on social media (a meme or thought, etc).

You aren't required to cite any sources, but it would be nice to know where you got your news story from (ex: ABC News or FOX or Twitter or Facebook). Just thoroughly describe your current event and share with the class and tell us how this is related to this weeks course content.

Concepts in this unit:

• Money
• Monetary Policy
• Banks & their role
• The Federal Reserve System
