The use of economics experiments
in teaching is becoming increasingly prevalent and there
are now substantial data that support the effectiveness
of this addition to pedagogic methods. Our center
provides teachers and students resources
for teaching economics.
We are pleased to host a
NSF-sponsored workshop series on teaching economics
with computerized instructional experiments.
The workshops will be held in various cities
in conjunction with major economics conferences
during 2006 through 2008. More information
is available on
workshops page.
EconPort
is a collection of economics education material
that incorporates a handbook of economic and
game-theoretic instructional text that is integrated
with active online resources, including software
for running instructional experiments.
