Econ Teachers

I would like to make any resources available to any AP Econ teacher who may need help...I maintain a modest website www.haywardecon.com with many ppts and other resources. I have created many things but also have liberally "borrowed" from GREAT econ teachers world-wide (I give credit on my Macro/Micro pages)...Use if it will help...:)

I love NPR's Planet Money. I try to listen to every episode, usually on my way to school in the morning. I is not at all unusual for me to use the very podcast I listened to on the way in during that day's class! All econ teachers should be listening to Planet Money (no, like economics, it is NOT only about money!)

Original taken from McConnell and Breu, I update them with data and stories from the Internet.

This AP Econ teacher from San Diego has some excellent review videos, "Economics in 60 Seconds" on his YouTube page. Check it out! "Mr. Clifford and ACDC Leadership is dedicated to creating interactive programs, lessons, and activities that make learning exciting."

I've always thought about how great it would be to teach Economics from my ski cabin in the mountains of Northern Idaho... perhaps teaching AP Econ online would be the way to go! Here's the deal: "Are you looking for a great opportunity, a rewarding career, or the chance to make a difference?
