Don’t know how often he pops in here but I want to thank @scwolla.bsky.social and the St. Louis Fed for all the great stuff they have there for AP Micro. Teaching Micro for the first time ever in the Fall and they have just a ton of good stuff for both Micro and Macro. Great job to those folks.

Most students take just one econ course. A Literacy-Targeted approach meets their needs—focusing on fewer concepts they can actually use. The best part? It doesn’t hurt econ majors. That makes it Pareto improving: better for most, worse for none. Learn more: economicsforlife.ca/pareto-impro...

The Literacy-Targeted approach emphasizes mastering core economic concepts rather than exposing students to a wide range of theories and techniques they are unlikely to use. As such, LT instruction ensures that students can apply economic reasoning in real-world contexts. economicsforlife.ca

Important work for teaching macroeconomics.

This is an excellent resource for anyone teaching macro! Most principles and intermediate textbooks still teach monetary policy implementation the way it was conducted before 2008. In my intermediate macro course at WashU I ditch the textbook when it comes to MonPol and use Scott's materials

Monetary policy has changed. Has your teaching? #TeachEcon www.stlouisfed.org/education/te...
