The amount of research in econ and business education is gradually
increasing, but it needs encouraging further.
I should have thought that it would be a good thing for people to use this
forum for people to report any research they are doing. This is one area
where people should not be reticent.
In fact in general I personally believe that people should be free to use
the forum to report all developments and resources that might be useful to
econ and business teachers - even if they are commercial. How else can we
find out what is out there that might be useful.
The Association of European Economic Education is trying to act as a forum
for teachers and researchers across the EU. The AEEE website is pretty poor
at present, but there are moves to improve it and it does now include a web
forum that folks might be interested in. The URL is:
www.aeee.dk
The site will shortly contain reports and the papers from the European
Economics Education conference which was held in Aachen, Germany last week
(140 teachers from 12 countries).
Best wishes
Steve Hurd
