ECON 248 Macroeconomics is a 3-credit, self-paced Athabasca University course with no prerequisites and four graded parts: six quizzes at 5% each, two assignments at 20% each, and an invigilated final at 30%.
The ANU rubric for Macroeconomics 2 states the penalty in one sentence: work that reproduces mathematics or diagrams without explained reasoning "will attract zero marks." Not reduced marks. Zero.
ECON1011 at UQ splits its largest assessment in two and puts 46 days between the halves. You submit a quote for approval in April worth 10%, then build a one-minute video around that same quote in May worth 25%.
Students who struggle in ECON2300 rarely struggle with the arithmetic. They struggle because the report asks for a kind of argument no earlier economics course has asked them to make. You are not being asked whether the regression ran.

Environmental economics exists to put numbers on things that were never bought or sold. The numbers are contested, and you will be marked on saying so.
Introductory microeconomics looks like a subject with right answers: you solve for equilibrium, compute elasticity, and the number is correct or not.
Microeconomics 1 at UNSW sits early in a business degree and functions as a gate: other courses assume it, so a weak result does not stay contained within one term.
Most courses add your marks and tell you whether the total clears fifty. At least one published ECON1310 offering does not.
Students search this code expecting an assignment guide, and the first useful thing to say is that Money and Finance at Macquarie has historically put most of its weight on a test and a final exam rather than written coursework.
ECON1003 Financial Institutions and Markets rewards students who explain why an institution or market behaves as it does, rather than students who merely describe it.
ECON1596 (and its companion code ECON1597) Business Challenges in the Digital Economy rewards students who use economic reasoning to explain why digital markets behave differently, not those who list technologies.
