The Bureau of Labor Statistics has employment projections by state and by occupation. Assign particular occupations for individual students or groups of students to research for your state using this site. Which occupations have higher and lower projected openings in your state? On the basis of these projections, would you expect wages to rise or fall over the short term and the long term? What do you think will likely happen to labor supply over the same period? What do you think will likely happen to worker movement in or out of your state in these occupations? What special factors for each occupation affect the ability of labor supply to change?
