This is a friendly reminder to mark your calendars and start making your plans to join the Journal of Economics Teaching for our summer Symposium on Economics Teaching from July 30 to August 1 in St. Louis, Missouri at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis!
This symposium is open to educators from all levels, ranging from K-12 teachers to community colleges and university professors. Every summer we host a series of engaging workshops that will empower you with innovative teaching methods to enhance your economics courses. Whether you’re presenting or just attending, we’d love to have you as part of our community of passionate economics educators!
Are you interested in sharing your insights and expertise? You can submit abstracts for an individual presentation or you can organize an entire session of presentations along a common theme with other presenters who will be in attendance. Don't miss the opportunity to showcase your innovative approaches to teaching economics!
The Early Acceptance Deadline for Abstracts is April 1st (No Joke!) While the early acceptance deadline for abstracts is April 1st, please know that we will accept submissions on a rolling basis after that date. Don't worry if you need a little extra time to finalize your submission, but submitting early increases your chances of presenting in St. Louis this summer!
