Would bringing brain science into your classroom help you teach economics? In this episode, Scott Wolla, economic education officer at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, explores that question. He’s joined by Bill Goffe, an economics teaching professor at Penn State University, and Andrew Butler, an associate professor of psychology and brain sciences at Washington University in St. Louis. Both educators say that applying even a little brain science to economics lessons can help unlock students’ learning potential.
