The mission of Economics Arkansas is to promote economic literacy and the economic-way of thinking to PreK-12 students in Arkansas by empowering educators to teach the fourth “r," real life economics.
Real life economics teaches students:
To invest in their human capital, opening opportunities to the American Dream.
Decision-making skills and the costs associated with each decision.
Financial skills to better manage their resources in the future.
About the global market and their future roles as producers and consumers.
Economic education is real life, because all young people will grow up and become part of the marketplace. Economics Arkansas provides resources and training to PreK-12.
