Search Rethinking Schools Help Home Archives Volume 16 No. 3 - Spring 2002 Stocks for Fun and Propaganda Stocks for Fun and Propaganda In schools across the country, students take part in highly popular stock market simulation games. But beware. These games often teach the wrong lesson. By Mark Maier Every year, more than one million U.S. elementary and high school students play the stock market at school. They use pretend money and imaginary trades, but simulate the feel of real-world finance, tallying their gains and losses as they trade at prices relayed electronically from the stock exchanges. These stock market simulations come with complete lesson plans, worksheets, professional advice from real stockbrokers, and even cash prizes. No wonder they are so popular. Melissa, a secondary school student, raves, "We are all having a blast and no one has even skipped class." Teachers, too, seem pleased. "The very first thing in the morning, before the Pledge of Allegiance, they want to check their stocks," a middle school computer teacher in West Bend, WI, notes. But stock market games and their accompanying curriculum guides present a rosy, one-sided picture of Wall Street, in which everyone starts out rich and all that matters is short-term profits. Omitting the less attractive side of the stock market fits conveniently with the corporate underwriters' viewpoint, but it is poor training for future citizens.

Bini Easley's former students at Kahakai Elementary School in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, could probably answer them all! Those students acquired their knowledge of stock market terms and turns by participating in the CNBC Student Stock Tournament (SST) in Easley's fourth-grade classroom. The CNBC SST , a free on-line stock market simulation, is a ten-week activity designed to teach students in grades 4 through 12 about investing, money management, and responsible decision making. Each team of students receives a virtual $100,000, which they use to create a stock portfolio. Based on their research of market trends, economic conditions, and business news as well as on personal preferences students select and trade common or preferred stocks listed on the New York, American, or Nasdaq stock exchanges. Portfolios "earn" interest and "pay" commissions, and students make and lose virtual money while adhering to the same rules and regulations that govern actual traders.

Lesson Plans Overview Lesson Plans: Budgeting Your Financal Resources Its importance The stock market is important in the operation of the American economic system. Companies sell stock to raise funds for improvements and expansions. The stock market also plays a critical role in personal financial planning. Not only do many individuals directly purchase shares of stock as part of their personal financial strategies, most Americans have a large stake in the stock market through their retirement programs. Investments in common stocks have proven to be an excellent long-run strategy in retirement planning, compared to alternatives such as savings accounts, government securities, corporate bonds, precious metals, works of art, rare coins, and stamps, and even baseball cards. The stock market dramatically illustrates how prices are (almost instantaneously) determined through the interaction of supply and demand in an auction-like environment. Finally, people of all ages find the stock market interesting. In both fact and fiction, fascinating stories of winning and losing vast fortunes in the stock market abound. Economics teachers can capitalize on the natural interest in the market by integrating lessons dealing with the stock market in various parts of their courses. Start by teaching students to read stock price reports and interpret financial information.
