Resources for Economics Teachers

Our economics bloggers have been hard at work during the half-term holidays, so we thought we might share a selection of the resources that have been added to the Economics blogs:

Many colleagues will be teaching unemployment once the students return, so my selection of charts might be a useful addition to the lesson plan:

Mike McCartney has been focusing on inflation and he has come up with this terrific choice of ten youTube videos for the topic:

Ben White has spotted this superb graphic which explains the composition of UK government spending - would make a great handout or wall display when teaching fiscal policy

The run up to Christmas will be a really busy period on the Economics blogs. If you (and your students) would like to keep in touch with every new resource as it is added, then there are some easy ways to do that.

Firstly, add your email to the Daily Blog Digest which we send out via google to recipients each breakfast time.

You can also keep in touch (we post new resources regularly) by following tutor2u and joining the vibrant community of economics teachers on twitter:
