Economics: Concepts and Choices © 2011 uses a concept-driven and interactive approach to develop economic literacy. It uses real-world examples, frequent concept application, and continuous updating to ensure that students and teachers stay abreast of the very latest economics news and information. A variety of print and technology resources are integrated into this comprehensive program providing teachers and students with the tools needed for success, from easy-to-use teaching tools to assessment tools that inform instruction.

Economics takes a unique approach to the material. For every concept within the narrative, Economics follows a consistent Concept-Example-Application approach, offering students a chance to make sure they fully understand the material before moving on. Because economics builds on itself, almost like math or a world language, this helps keep students on pace.
