Topic structure
Each content section (1.1.1) is designed to be as modular as possible so that teachers can pick up individual sections to complement or challenge their mainstream economics courses. At the same time, the Topic is designed as a coherent unit. We're aiming for flexibility.
Each content section (1.1.1) is meant for a 40-50 minute class period, especially if students pre-read the text, about 10 minutes, in a flipped classroom approach. In addition to the main text, there is:
at least one activity that can be done in class to reinforce learning
auto-marked multiple choice questions to check for understanding
suggestions for further exploration
list of sources that informed the text
list of terminology for the section, with a link to Quizlet interactive games with the terms.
At the end of each Topic, x.5 Taking Action has ideas for deeper engagement for place- and project-based learning, changemaking, and research.
There is a feedback button on each page if you would like to offer suggestions.
If you are interested in piloting, please let us know so we can help and so that we can document impact, which is important for continued funding of the project.
