[Channel-talkeconomics] Workshop 1: Is Anybody Out There?

I enjoyed video Workshop #1, and am hoping that there are others now
enrolled in the summer '06 workshop who would like to swap observations
and suggestions.
I currently teach two sections of economics and thought the lessons
shown were creative and would help students understand the concepts
being explored.

My personal favorite was the last lesson on cartels. It reminded me of
my class. I could definitely relate to the instructor, especially when
he was asked why they weren't playing another round because the student
worksheet had space for one more.

I also enjoyed the lesson on barriers to trade, but that was definitely
a high ability, high motivational group of students; not my class
makeup.

If anyone's out there please reply.

Thanks

Bill
