More than ever before, people around the globe are connected by the products they manufacture and consume. Globalization has caused major shifts in supply and demand, creating both exciting opportunities and challenges related to natural resources. This convenient set examines how manufacturing processes account for available materials and technology, budget constraints, and consumers' wants and needs. In accordance with the C3 Framework for Social Studies State Standards, the series traces the life cycle of common products from raw materials to store shelves, underscoring concepts about human capital and the movement of goods and ideas along the way. Features include: Real-world examples of globalization. In-depth discussions of how STEM shapes the economy. Explanations about why some products are manufactured abroad, including why some raw materials are sourced from other countries. Examples of production and shipping costs. Aligns with C3 objectives.
