Economics may be referred to as the dismal science, but that need not be the case. 'Economix: How and Why Our Economy Works (and Doesn't Work) in Words and Pictures' is a graphic novel that discusses economic concepts in a fun format. I am excited to share the beauty of economics with my students in a non-traditional manner and get them hooked into an economic way of thinking.
I would like to use a class set with my students to introduce the various topics we cover prior to us digging deeper into the concepts in our textbook. The author of 'Economix' wanted to, 鈥渆xplore the development of economic thought, examine the reality of economic practices, and tell the story through the graphic medium in order to make it accessible.鈥 Thank you in advance for your consideration and helping me bring economics to life for my students.
