ABOUT THE BOOK: Teaching economics has been always challenging for a teacher especially when there are several external factors that govern what has to be taught and what not. Generally it is seen that students find a complete lecture method uninteresting, more so when the concepts are difficult to comprehend. Involvement of students then becomes imperative and to meet this objective the change in the method of instruction serves a useful purpose. Economics education or economic education is a field within economics that focuses on two main themes: 1) the current state of, and efforts to improve, the economics curriculum, materials and pedagogical techniques used to teach economics at all educational levels; and 2) research into the effectiveness of alternative instructional techniques in economics, the level of economic literacy of various groups, and factors that influence the level of economic literacy. Economics education is distinct from economics of education, which focuses on the economics of the institution of education. It is beyond doubt that the knowledge of economics has a practical utility for the knowledge of civics, history, geography and other social sciences. A study of economics provides us the knowledge of various resources and their practical utility. Knowledge of economics has been used in making various new inventions and discoveries. Study of economics helps us to know about various gains and losses.
