Join us for a dynamic teacher professional development workshop that addresses the pressing need to engage students in discussions about justice and equitable treatment. In this workshop, we’ll explore how economists navigate ethical frameworks when evaluating outcomes and addressing public issues. Participants will be introduced to a new curriculum featuring 16 thought-provoking lessons, each designed to help instructors tackle complex topics at the intersection of ethics and economics. From examining economic justice to discussing the social responsibility of businesses, we’ll delve into critical questions such as the treatment of the homeless and the operation of private prisons. Through interactive demonstrations and discussions, you’ll discover how to integrate these lessons seamlessly into your classroom, fostering students’ critical thinking and understanding of the ethical dimensions of economic systems. Join us as we navigate the complexities of fairness and equity within the free market system and empower students to think like economists with a conscience.
