The Centre for Economy Studies works to improve and modernize economics education so that students are better prepared for their future careers and for the societal challenges we face now and in the coming decades. During Economics Education Week, we are hosting an English-language workshop for Academics.
This workshop will present the latest set of teaching materials created by the Centre for Economy Studies, designed to teach economics in a way that is embedded in real-world knowledge. We have two interactive classroom exercises ideal for tutorial or seminar groups, and an engaging 90-minute lecture most suitable for an introductory undergraduate class. After briefly introducing the overarching framework of Economy Studies, we will take you through these teaching packs and how to use them, as well as giving you the opportunity to discuss your own ideas for alternative economics education with fellow lecturers.
