When combined with a textbook, Capstone provides activities for a complete high school economics course. 45 exemplary lessons, over half of which are completely new, help students learn to apply economic reasoning to a wide range of real-world subjects - ranging from personal finance to global issues.

"An excellent tool to ensure student engagement and interest. Lessons are well-researched and explained. Very helpful for teachers!

-- Dot Ely, QSI International School of Chengdu, Chengdu, China

"Capstone makes it very easy to teach economics to students. I enjoy the fact that this is a "hands on" approach. This method engages students to stay on task and learn by doing. I also appreciate that the lessons are self-contained. An inexperienced economic teacher can use the Capstone materials as they are and then draw upon outside resources as needed down the road. A very well done resource for teaching high school economics."

-- Jerry Marowsky, Racine, WI
