A PROVEN TOOL FOR SCHOOLS
Now more than ever, schools are looking for ways to meet higher
educational standards while working within tighter budgets.
To meet this challenge, schools are seeking more effective
education tools that both motivate students and support
teachers in building lifelong learning skills. One tool that
meets these requirements in an innovative and time-tested way
is The Stock Market Game program.
Since 1977, the program has given educators a way to improve
the learning experience in thousands of classrooms. Teachers
have successfully used The Stock Market Game program to enliven
core academic subjects including business, math, social
studies, and language arts and research has shown there's
no better way to teach the importance of saving and investing.
The Stock Market Game program offers a vast library
of learning materials correlated to national educational standards
in math, business education, and economics. This resource has
inspired many teachers to incorporate the program into classes
in creative ways at all levels, from fourth grade to
college, all across the curriculum.
