In this exercise, you will demonstrate your ability to find macroeconomic data from public sources and display it in an Excel spreadsheet.

Start by choosing one of these three macroeconomic variables: Real GDP, the unemployment rate, or the inflation rate.
Follow these instructions to find numbers for your macroeconomic variable for three consecutive years:
Table 1.1.6. https://apps.bea.gov/iTable/?reqid=19&step=3&isuri=1&nipa_table_list=6 (Real Gross Domestic Product, Chained Dollars). Select Modify and choose 2015-A&Q as the First Year. Under Series, select Annual. The Real GDP numbers for each year are in Line 1.
https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000 (Labor Force Statistics From the Current Population Survey). These unemployment numbers are monthly, not annual. Use the January number for each year. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CUUR0000SA0L1E?output_view=pct_12mths
(CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)). These inflation numbers are monthly, not annual. Use the January number for each year.

Prepare an Excel spreadsheet that has two columns and four rows. In cells A3, A4, and A5 descending below this heading, type the three years that you have chosen.
In the heading for cell B2, type the name of the variable you chose (Real GDP, Unemployment Rate, or Inflation Rate). In the cells below this heading, type the values for each of the three years.

CASE STUDY

Tomeika is a three-year-old girl. She was recently diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Tomeika is able to make many vocalizations and is able to say one recognizable word. Tomeika will say “juice”, which she pronounces as “oos.” Throughout the day, Tomeika cries and falls to the floor to gain access to food, obtain a favorite toy, or when she wants to be picked up. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Williams, would like for Tomeika to communicate her desires with words, but do not know how to help her. Tomeika recently began attending an early childhood special education classroom for learners with ASD in the County Public School System for six hours a day, four days a week. On Wednesdays, Tomeika and her peers do not go to school. Instead, on this day, Tomeika’s interventionist, Mrs. Dell, has parent conferences in her students’ homes. During the conferences, Mrs. Dell discusses educational programming, learner progress, areas of concern, and also provides training to parents.
