Rees, Deputy Under Secretary for Innovation and Improvement Before the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs Subcommittee on Financial Management, the Budget, and International Security FOR RELEASE: March 30, 2004 Contact: Chairman Fitzgerald and Subcommittee Members, I am pleased to be here this afternoon to discuss the Department of Education's efforts to improve the financial and economic literacy of our Nation's students. As Deputy Under Secretary for Innovation and Improvement in the Department of Education, I oversee the Office of Innovation and Improvement, which supports education innovation through an array of discretionary programs, broadly disseminates the lessons learned from these programs, and helps to make strategic investments in promising educational practices. Our focus at the Department of Education is on educating every child in our schools, so that no child is left behind. Last year, Secretary Paige joined former Treasury Secretary O'Neill in announcing the Administration's initiatives to raise awareness about financial education, and he acknowledged that, in addition to learning skills in the core academic subjects, it is important for students to gain financial literacy.

Stanford Report, November 3, 2000 High school economics teachers bone up on latest trends BY LISA TREI High school economics teachers in California are back in the thick of their jobs running classes, grading papers and trying to stay on top of a hot economy that keeps charging ahead. But for one week last summer, a group of 30 instructors got to step away from the classroom, become students and learn the latest from experts in everything from the nitty-gritty behind startup companies to the impact of changing welfare policy. Sponsored by the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR), the Summer Economic Institute for Teachers gives instructors a chance to arm themselves with what's happening in the economy and share tips on how best to pass that on to their students. The course, which is taught in July, is free to public and private high school teachers who are invited by Don Hill, a staff member at the Haas Center for Public Service. Notices also are sent to the California Council for the Social Studies, a nonprofit organization. Most of those who attend are from the Peninsula, but this year some came from San Francisco and Chico. "This is the most protected week of my year; nothing is going to get in the way of it," said Wayne Phillips, a teacher for 28 years at Mills High School in Millbrae. Phillips has been attending the institute every year since economists John Shoven and Gavin Wright started it in 1987. The course was established in response to a California Mandate for Social Sciences that required high school students study economics for one semester. The state legislature was reacting to pressure from an industry lobby concerned about the lack of economically literate students entering the work force, said Shoven, SIEPR's director and the Charles Schwab Professor of Economics. However, the mandate was passed without setting up any formal system for training teachers. The institute was created to help address the gap.

Using the Internet to Teach Economics: An Idea Page Students at all levels get excited about using the web and can benefit from using the web for up-to-date information. Recommended grade levels are shown, but you should tailor the project to your students. At the end, we even have a couple of web projects for K-4 As students become more advanced at web use, they can begin to create their own pages. Any of the following ideas can be developed for advanced students by having them work in teams to create a Web Virtual Collection or Exhibition on the topic to share with others. Reminder: One of the most important things you can do for your students is help them learn to evaluate information! Have them ask: Who provided this information? What are his or her qualifications? Is this information consistent with what experts say? Does this information reflect a particular viewpoint? What are the other viewpoints? What can I learn from this web page? Here are some sources of information on this: Evaluating World Wide Web Information Evaluating information found on the Internet Criteria for evaluation of Internet Information Resources For these exercises, the search tools of the Web will be very useful. Any of the following projects can be enhanced by finding more supporting information. The students can do most of this! A web site that links all of the major search sites is found at

Post a Comment Math and Economics, December 16, 2003 Brad DeLong points to an interesting post by Daniel Davies on the use of math in economics. Davies writes, If the history of economic thought teaches us anything, it teaches us that people who don’t use the mathematics always, sooner or later, end up saying something badly wrong about economics. Paul Krugman has an essay on the subject with which I profoundly disagree on a number of points, but which contains one highly important truth; there are important ideas in economics which are crystal clear if you understand the mathematics and bloody hard to get your head round if you don’t. Davies has many interesting links in his post. The Krugman essay says in part, International trade in particular happens to be a subject in which a page or two of algebra and diagrams is worth 10 volumes of mere words. That is why it is the particular subfield of economics in which the views of those who understand the subject and those who do not diverge most sharply. I may be putting words into Krugman's mouth, but what he is saying is that you can divide the world into people who will say things like, "We're losing all our good jobs to India!" on the one hand and people who believe in a simple general equilibrium model (the famous
