Who said economists couldn't be creative souls. Let's look above just refuting old theories. If you can turn sketchy connections into full blown conclusions, we have an event for you. Derive economic interpretations out of visual and written prompts and surprise us and yourselves alike. This is a team event where the first round is pointed at your ability to work in a team and test your creative cells and the final round is going to be a test of just how much you see economics in the world around you.
*Pre-registration required
*No. of participants per team: 4
Round 1 – Elimination round
- Team members are supposed to sit individually for this round.
- Each member will be given a prompt- a picture, phrase or a combination of the two. Derive a creative economic interpretation from your prompt.
- The successive team members will derive their subsequent interpretations in a manner that they can be connected to the previous in a sequential manner.
- The goal is to have a final interpretation that’s conclusive as a whole.
Round 2
- Teams will be shown a series of unrelated videos on the day of the event.
- Your goal is to identify an economic crisis out of the video.
- Each team will be given 30 minutes to sit together and analyse their videos. Your interpretations are to be explained verbally in front to the judges with the aid of a PPT presentation.
- Presentations should not exceed 10 minutes for each team. Marks will be deducted for going over the time limit.
Judgment criteria:
Clarity of the economic content, diction, grammar, relevance to the videos.
Notes:
Teams need to carry their own laptops and pen drives to carry the videos and create presentations.
