Goal: Nebraska academic standards: Social studies, Grade 8

## 1. Economics · Illustrate how international trade impacts individuals, organizations, and nations.

- [Global Trade](https://ai.page/c/global-trade/index.md): Why countries trade with each other; imports and exports; how goods travel around the world; that different countries use different currencies

## 2. Economics · Understand personal and business financial management.

- [Financial Planning](https://ai.page/c/financial-planning/index.md): Setting longer-term financial goals; planning and prioritising spending; how saving regularly adds up over time; the value of thinking ahead with money

## 3. Civics · Evaluate the roles, responsibilities, and rights as local, state, national, and international citizens.

- [Global Citizenship](https://ai.page/c/global-citizenship/index.md): Understand what it means to be a citizen in an interconnected world where decisions in one place affect people elsewhere; explore global issues (climate justice, forced migration, global health, poverty) through an empathy lens, distinguishing facts from value judgements; engage with the ethical tension between obligations to those close to us and obligations to distant strangers; introduce evidence-based giving and effective altruism as one framework for thinking about global responsibility; develop a personal, reasoned stance on global citizenship that acknowledges complexity
