It envisions a wide variety of economics graduates and specialists, equipped with a broad toolkit, enabling them to collectively understand and help tackle the issues the world faces today. This is a practical guide for (re-)designing economics courses and programs. Based on a clear conceptual framework and ten flexible building blocks, this handbook offers refreshing ideas and practical suggestions to stimulate student engagement and critical thinking across a wide range of courses. Key features Adapting Existing Courses: Plug-and-play suggestions to improve existing economics courses with attention to institutions, history, values and practical skills. Teaching materials: A guide through the rapidly growing range of innovative textbooks and other teaching materials. Example Courses and Curricula: How to design pluralist, real-world economics education within the practical limits of time and resources. The companion website, www.economystudies.com, contains a wealth of additional resources, such as tailor-made booklets for more specific audiences, additional teaching materials and links to plug-and-play syllabi and courses, and opportunities for workshops and exchange with other economics educators.EconomicsStudy and teachingBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Educationbisacsheconomics education, pluralism, student movement.EconomicsStudy and teaching.BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Education.330.071Muijnck Samauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1073722Tieleman Jorisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autWolf Martinctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910508502303321Economy Studies2569874UNINA
