Case Study
I use open and freely available resources in my introductory economics courses. These include OpenStax economics textbooks, CORE Econ, Marginal Revolution University, Federal Reserve Economic Data, and Khan Academy Economics. Together, these resources provide students with no-cost access to readings, videos, and current economic data. They also allow me to connect economic concepts to real-world issues and agricultural markets while offering students multiple ways to engage with the material.
