Homework Assignment after teaching all of the four lessons above.

Break your class up into three groups that represent the FOMC (maximum of 12 students in
each group).  Obviously, your groups can be fewer students if your class size is under 36
students.  Try to bring your class up into three, evenly divided groups.

Give each group of students one of the links below and have them be prepared in three days
to get in front of the class where each student has to explain one part of the press releases
from either the FOMC Statement and the Board of Governors Implementation Notes.
