I find that when assigning lengthy readings for in-class discussion, it is extremely helpful to guide students' preparation with specific questions, and incorporate these in worksheets that explicitly call for students to write out their responses before entering the classroom. These worksheets can provide some added structure for whole-class discussion, or can provide a specific agenda for review of the readings in small groups. Because these readings are more than a few years old, I have also found it useful to assign small groups of students to give brief reports that expand on and update the issues raised in the readings.

In our european project “Circular Economy as a tool to develop an innovative eco-inclusive social entrepreneurship educational pattern for youth" cofunded by Erasmus+, the partnership developed a competency framework and report combining data and information from 6 partner countries, designed to inform Young people and Youth workers interested in Social Entrepreneurship through Circular Economy, including 7 key competences to embark on a Social Entrepreneurship endeavour through Circular Economy models.
All languages versions are available and downloable here: https://ecocircleproject.com/results/
We are now developping a course on circular economy that you will find very soon online!

Ebay is a parody of I Want it That Way by the Backstreet Boys a #1 hit from 1999. This song contains animated lyrics and an economic explanation that are synchronized to the music. The song explores a wide range of economic issues including: markets, supply and demand, and gains from trade.
This site contains 21 modular, easy to use economic models, that are appropriate for class assignments or in-class demonstrations. Students can simulate all the standard models taught in most economics courses. EconModel uses the Windows OS. The simulations were developed by William R. Parke of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
This activity helps a student recognize the consequences of Type I and Type II errors in hypothesis testing.
In both macroeconomics and microeconomics principles courses, economists teach the virtue of markets as an allocative mechanism. But markets sometimes fail. This example allows students to simulate the market failure associated with a common property resource, a salmon fishery, and evaluate ways to control fishing. The simulation also shows the distributional results of different allocative mechanisms. The simulation was developed by Paul Romer at Stanford University and is available on the Aplia web site.
