Examines curriculum and instruction in secondary school Economics. This course integrates student experiences in their student teaching to a higher level of understanding of the challenges to contemporary teaching of social studies economics at the middle-secondary school levels.

Exploring resources that are inclusive of a wide realm of human diversity will be a key goal of this course.
