What do we give up when we choose where resources go?
Your discovery goalExplain scarcity and opportunity cost using a feasible allocation and a reasoned trade-off.
Mapping checkedA prediction is a starting idea. You can revise it after exploring.
Use at least 40 characters and include an observation. Your writing is saved as evidence; it is not automatically judged for accuracy.
This records completion of this demonstration. It is not an official grade or a claim of mastery.
Allocate a fixed community budget. Compare what can be funded and identify the next-best choice you forgo.
Explain scarcity and opportunity cost using a feasible allocation and a reasoned trade-off.
State what you changed. Describe the result using an observation from the model. Connect the observation to the idea you are learning, then try a different case to test your explanation.
Build on what you know. Discover where it leads.

Original activities, questions, reading passages and fictional archives. A curricular connection does not make a Bodhi activity an official NCERT exercise. Broader grade adaptation awaits educator review.
Mapping scope: Direct scarcity/opportunity-cost mapping in IX. VI–VIII introductory extensions; X application. Community outcomes are illustrative.
The explanations, models and assessments on labs.bodhiclasses are original learning activities. An official reference establishes curriculum context; it does not imply approval of this activity by CBSE or NCERT.
Every choice has an alternative.
What will you prioritise?
Maintaining pumps and safe water points
Staffing a basic neighbourhood clinic
Books, materials and accessible classrooms
Caring for trees and shared outdoor areas
20 credits are unallocated. Use the remaining budget, or explain why you want a reserve. Ordinary-season stated needs total 100 credits. Compare a balanced allocation with a different set of priorities.
These are invented credits and hypothetical funding needs, not actual prices or a policy recommendation. Each service's funding indicator rises linearly up to its stated need, then stops. Needs and benefits in real communities are more complex; equal indicator percentages do not imply equal welfare. Different priorities can be defensible when explained.
