My Project

Many times as we teach economic systems, the best we can do for a simulation is create a budget and then throw a couple random occurrences at them until they see some changes to their finances. By playing the game Monopoly and changing the rules during game play, the students are able to see the benefits and struggles that occur through each economic system in real time with greater realism holding artificial money. By playing a simple game in a classroom, students can better grasp what will actually happen in a real world circumstance.
