⚖ How can inequality be understood from a broader perspective beyond income + wealth? The revised Chapter 10 of Microeconomics in Context analyzes the relation between economic inequality + well-being, with data on national and international inequality: gdpcenter.org/3MGaD9f

Just read this very nice piece by @ckdwarkasing explaining how she approaches the teaching of advanced microeconomics from a heterodox/pluralist perspective @SOASEconomics It's in the new Teaching Heterodox Economics Magazine edited by @DallaireLea: figshare.com/articles/onlin….

It is crucial that students learn about such contributions in a critical way, although there is a lot to celebrate. It is educators’ responsibility to help students get the full picture, and how to critically evaluate the work of economists. #TeachEcon #NobelPrize #EconTwitter

Although her contribution explores an important gender inequality in an historic fashion it does not explore the intersection of other inequalities as discussed by @SurbhiKesar and @rosaabraham6 twitter.com/NobelPrize/sta…

The Nobel in Economics, Claudia Goldin, presents a valuable opportunity to involve students in discussions led by a female economist and explore gender dynamics in the labor market. This article however serves as a great example of how we can analyse her work in a nuanced manner

This has become one of my favourite slides when explaning to my students that there are different ways to do economics and, therefore, to conceptualise ‘the economy’ Thank you, @SandyDarity, for writing this paper! tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

📢Check out our new teaching pack: Know Your Own Economy UK, based on one of our building blocks: economystudies.com/book/bb2/ and represents a key aspect missing from the economics curricula – learning about the actual economy around us. economystudies.com/know-your-own-… #teachecon #econed

A great example of a way to diversify and engage students! Students write a bio of a 'Great Economist' from a pre-chosen list, their contribution, how it links to class content, and their own lives. What economists do you recommend to put on the list? #teachecon #EconEd

Check out our chapter on the same topic 👉 economystudies.com/book/values/

In line with one of our care principles, values needs to be included in edu. "Students should be taught how values matter to the material they are learning, what alternative value systems might be coupled with the descriptive theories they are learning..." #econed #econtwitter

"A must read for anyone curious about the economy and the world" @TimHarford "Best publication for A level students" HoD, Bromley "My favourite economics mag" Principal Examiner "This is excellent" John Maloney, Uni of Exeter #economics today economicsfactory.com/product-catego…

"In most economics classes we focus on the production and consumption of goods and services, but what happens to the product and its packaging after it’s consumed?" Our friends from @econstudies have developed this teaching pack! 👉 buff.ly/44uMtVp

Podcasts are a great way for students to get more familiar with the world of economics. These are some great suggestions. We also recommend @planetmoney and @EconomicsinTen perfect for students and also a great basis for classes #teachecon
