What Is Socialism? Part 2, Thursday, July 25 | Denver (in-person only) | Accredited

This new curriculum unit from our partners at the Foundation for Teaching Economics (FTE) examines the major themes and issues with socialism as well as covering the ideas of what socialism is, how it’s understood today, and how it was applied in the past. Data, analysis, and student activities will highlight the history of socialist thought and application over time. As a classroom topic, comparative economic systems provide an excellent lens for students to see key economic concepts in action.

Participants will leave this workshop with lessons, activities and background information. More details to come.
