Economics and Finance

Journal of Economic Education offers original articles on teaching economics. In its pages, leading scholars evaluate innovations in teaching techniques, materials, and programs. Instructors of introductory through graduate level economics will find the journal an indispensable resource for content and pedagogy in a variety of media.

The Journal of Economics and Finance Education (JEFE) is a general interest publication, which targets articles in the area of economic and finance education. JEFE invites economic and finance contributions in three main areas: research, instruction, and content. The journal encourages empirical and methodological contributions and will entertain theoretical articles in some instances.

The Journal of Financial Education is devoted to promoting financial education through publication of articles that focus on educational research, creative pedagogy, and curriculum development. We publish articles that help improve the delivery of financial education through research that tests hypotheses regarding all aspects of the educational process, pedagogical papers that offer interesting or unique approaches to teaching, case studies, and literature reviews.  In particular, we strive to tie educational ideas and innovations discussed in the journal to assurance of learning principles whenever possible.
