This Was In The Syllabus For Last Week But Since You Have a Long Week This was in the syllabus for last week, but since you have a long weekend coming up, I thought I'd save it for your weekend downtime. Your assignment this week is to watch one of the selected videos and write a brief response paper. Use the same format for article responses we've done, including: a summary of the movie, a summary of economic issues, analysis of economic issues—be sure to tie this in to what we've been doing in class, your opinion of the video—did they do a good job portraying the topic(s), did you leave with more questions you'd like to research (if so, what are they), and whether the film seemed objective or biased. Your response should be 2–3 pages, including any references other than the video. Please note that some of the videos contain strong language (Wall Street types are always swearing like sailors in films), so you might want to check them out before watching with family. The video options include: Available on Netflix: Banking on Bitcoin , Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (brief nudity) Available on Amazon: The Big Short (some strong language) Available streaming: Inside Job , Frontline: Breaking the Bank , Life and Debt
