World Food Prize Institute and Paper Resources
Have you heard about the World Food Prize (WFP) Youth Institute, presented by Purdue University’s College of Agriculture?
This extraordinary educational opportunity for high school students is a potentially life-changing experience and an inspiration to help end world hunger.
Free to participating students and teachers / mentors, the institute takes place virtually April 29 (evening) and April 30 (full day).
Warm up your econ in January with this webinar for Indiana teachers presented by MRU!
In this webinar presented by Marginal Revolution University, teachers will learn how to make learning about supply, demand, and equilibrium fun— online or in-person—with this new curriculum unit featuring interactive games, videos, news articles, and software for drawing and shifting curves. This hands-on, experiential webinar will provide a sampling of the curriculum unit’s bells and whistles, including demonstrating how to utilize videos as direct instruction resources and integrate current events to increase student engagement and comprehension.

“I wish I would have learned this in school.”
We prepare students to become active citizens and productive members of our economy by providing them with the ability to make sound economic decisions.
Students will be required throughout their lives to make economics decisions important for their own well-being, and to understand and make decisions about public policy issues. A thorough understanding of economics will contribute not only to their personal success, but also to the successes of the businesses, institutions, and governments in which they participate.
