First year Economics 31 101 Introduction The purpose of this class is to introduce you to the basic concepts of economics. Through a consideration of current policy controversies you will see how these principles are applied in practice. The first semester covers the basic principles. The second semester deals with how these principles have to be adapted for application in an imperfect world. Introductory lectures are given by Jim Love. John Ireland gives the first semester lectures on Micro Economics of a Perfect World and Macro Economics. The second semester lectures on Economics in an Imperfect World are given by Frank Stephen and Maria Demertzis.

Fair Play: What Your Child Can Teach You About Economics, Values, and the Meaning of Life by Steven E. Landsburg Hardcover, 224 pages Published by Free Press ISBN: 0684827557 "Should be required reading for every high school senior, politician and newspaper editor.... The quality of your own thinking, and your ability to detect faulty logic, will be honed by Landsburg's entertaining discourse." The Washington Post Book World "Another collection of brash, intelligent essays on economics by the author of The Armchair Economist (1993).... Often funny and at times poetic, these essays are eminently readable and always smart." Kirkus Reviews From the Book Jacket: With his witty and instructive book The Armchair Economist , Steven Landsburg won popularity and acclaim by using economics to illuminate the mysteries of daily life, and using daily life to illuminate the mysteries of economics. Now Landsburg returns to address fundamental issues like fairness, tolerance, morality and justice-issues that are as important on the playground as they are in the marketplace. With the help of his daughter Cayley, he contrasts the wisdom of parents with the wisdom of economists-not always to the credit of the latter. How should we feel about taxes that redistribute income? Ask how parents feel about children who forcibly "redistribute" other children's toys. How should we respond to those who complain that their neighbors are too wealthy? Ask how parents respond when children complain that their siblings got too much cake. By insisting that fairness can't mean one thing for children and another for adults, Landsburg shows that the instincts of the parent have profound consequences for economic justice.

Case Study: Using the Web to teach economics: a personal reflection Up: Home Showcase Contact: Kevin Hinde Senior Lecturer in Economics, University of Northumbria kevin.hinde@unn.ac.uk Published October 2001 I started using the Web in 1996 largely as a means to provide unit outlines and reading lists for the courses I taught. My early rationale was that it might cut down on the numbers who used to knock on my door to ask for a spare handout. However, my strategy as to how the Web can be applied in the teaching and learning of economics has evolved and, indeed, is evolving. All units I currently teach are supported by a dedicated Web site, www.kevinhinde.com , a domain name I purchased because it was easier for students to remember than www.unn.ac.uk/~egkh1 Another aim is to provide a visually appealing learning medium that enhances the student educational experience and certainly developments in Web software have helped this. One of my early ventures was the initiation of an interactive textbook though like most who use the Web there are also the obligatory plethora of notes and slides. A recent innovation is that of slides with streaming audio. Students enjoy the opportunity to pause and rewind an audio-slide show and I am considering using it as an occasional substitute for one or two lectures. I have experimented with video but our university does not currently have the technical infrastructure to support such a development. Moreover, there are still internet traffic problems associated with video so that their effective use is still restricted to wide bandwidths. For the moment I am using slides with streaming audio as a compromise.

Case Study: Using Problem Based Learning (PBL) to Teach Economics Up: Home Showcase Contact: Frank P. Forsythe University of Ulster at Jordanstown (UUJ) teachit225@aol.com Published October 2001 Introduction This case study provides a few general observations based on my experiences using PBL to teach economics at Ulster. The two references below provide more specific details on the PBL environments adopted. A description of PBL - whereby students, working in groups, are responsible for generating the information necessary to respond to a set task - is available at http://www.economics.ltsn.ac.uk/advice/pbl.htm Although PBL encourages a learning environment in which students are actively involved in the generation of information, there is no suggestion here that these very desirable attributes are attainable only through PBL. The basic PBL format can be adapted to suit the learning environment. Thus, at one end of the PBL spectrum, PBL at Ulster has been used to support formal lectures in an introductory economics module by requiring students to apply key concepts first introduced during lectures to real world situations. At the other extreme, PBL has been used exclusively as the sole teaching method in a final year labour economics module where it replaced the traditional lecture-seminar format.

Mathematica Conference Proceedings 1998 WorldWide Mathematica Conference Using Mathematica Animations to Teach Undergraduate Economics Craig Marcott University of St. Thomas This presentation will demonstrate several of the author's Mathematica notebooks and packages that feature animated diagrammatic economic models. The animations have been successful in engaging students who are naturally reluctant to confront difficult material. Active learning is encouraged by allowing students to change parameters, and simple VCR-like controls can be used to change animation direction and speed. The animations make fairly complicated ideas ( e.g., the Slutsky equation, Jacob Viner's problem) visually apparent to quantitatively unsophisticated students. The long-term goal of the project is to provide animated versions of most of the diagrams included in introductory and intermediate microeconomics and macroeconomics courses. Over two hundred animations have already been written covering topics such as cost and production, consumer choice, circular flow, the Slutsky equation, labor economics, macroeconomics, expected utility, the competitive model, income inequality, and welfare economics. Approximately 60 animations can be viewed at http://milkweed.econ.stthomas.edu/~csmarcot/my.html

All Collections Articles Books Conference Proceedings Courseware Demos MathSource: Packages and Programs Technical Notes Title Using Mathematica Animations to Teach Undergraduate Economics Author Craig Marcott Organization: University of St. Thomas Conference 1998 WorldWide Mathematica Conference Conference location Chicago, IL Description This presentation will demonstrate several of the author's Mathematica MathReader , a free program that can be used to view the notebooks and render the animations. One example of an animation that has been used effectively in class is the standard competitive model showing the market and the unit-cost curves of a representative firm. This is augmented with two additional quadrants showing the budget-line indifference curve diagram and demand curve for a representative consumer. The animations show the short- and long-run effects of demand shifts and changes in production costs. A second example shows how the expected utility model relates to the standard indifference curve analysis (i.e., the Arrow-Debreu contingent claims approach to uncertainty). By studying animations showing the expected utility diagram directly above the indifference curve diagram, the user can visualize how changes in the probability of ending up in the bad state of the world correspond to changes in the shape the indifference curves. Linking the von Neumann-Morgenstern utility and classical indifference curve approaches in this way makes it easier to understand how insurance demand is related to risk aversion. This construct is used to demonstrate Arrow's result that risk-averse individuals will always choose full insurance whenever the insurance contract is actuarially fair.

May 27, 1999 KU ECONOMICS EDUCATOR WINS FULBRIGHT TO TEACH IN BULGARIA LAWRENCE - Barbara J. Phipps, University of Kansas associate professor of education, has received a Fulbright fellowship for teaching and research at Sophia University in Bulgaria. Phipps directs KU's Center for Economic Education and has been teaching economics in the former Soviet Bloc countries and studying the transition to a free-market system. She will spend five months in Sophia beginning in September. As a member of Sophia University's economics and business faculty, she will teach economics and will research the knowledge and attitudes of students regarding the economic changes in their country. She will also conduct seminars on the teaching of economics for the business and economics faculty. In June, Phipps will be in Riga, Latvia, working with the National Council on Economic Education training program for economic educators from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Since 1997, Phipps has served on a team of 10 U.S. university faculty in economics and education involved in this program funded by the U.S. Department of Education. "The teachers we train are learning market economic theory and how to teach economics to students from kindergarten through the university level," Phipps said of the federally-funded program that began her involvement in researching economic transitions in former Soviet Bloc countries.

speeches What they did not teach you in the economics course Samuel Brittan: Oxford Prepared for 13/12/00 but not delivered There was a famous book entitled What They Did Not Teach you at Harvard Business School. I was inclined to call my talk What They did not Teach you in the Oxford Economics course. But I cannot claim to know exactly what is taught is such courses. And of course I realise that you are not taught all the same things, as you go to different courses with different tutors and read different textbooks. It is however amazing how few books there are on how economic systems actually work. On the one hand there are strictly academic books which concentrate on quantitative techniques and mathematical relationships on which students can be examined, but which do not answer very directly the questions that practioners of history or government have about the economy. On the other there are numerous voices from other disciplines, or no discipline at all, which make strident assertions such “the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer” picked up from a few media headlines. I find it striking that so many of the people who come to talk to me about recent economic events or government policy come from the faculties of politics and modern history. At the end of the day it does not really matter from which faculty studies come, so long as their work is enlightening. But in my experience professors of politics, international relations or sociology do not - with a few distinguished exceptions - deal well with economic issues, irrespective of their political views.

I try to coordinate it with what I am doing academically, be it in language arts or social studies. I have a two burner electric unit avaliable along with electric frying pans, and even a barbeque grill when weather permits.
