Objective

In this webinar teachers will be able to:

Description

Is scarcity a myth? Are jobs lost when minimum wage is increased? Is the Phillips curve accurate? Teachers will learn to question their understanding of traditional econ principles taught in the classroom and how students benefit from an inquiry-based approach through projects, discussions, and debates, to see how economics really works in today.
