Center for Economic Education
Mission
The mission of the center for economic education at Indiana University South Bend is to increase economic literacy in north-central Indiana. The Center aims to help prepare young students to become informed and productive citizens by increasing their knowledge of economics. The center organizes and supports activities designed to creatively integrate economics into the K-12 educational experience to help local schools and students successfully meet Indiana academic standards for economics. The center regularly offers instructional workshops, as well as an intensive graduate college-credit summer course, for k-12 teachers taught by innovative, experienced teachers. The center also provides services and expertise related to grants, curriculum development, and classroom resources for k-12 economics education.
