Whether making everyday choices in the grocery store, contemplating the cost of college or voting in an election, economic thinking can help us analyze the world around us to make more informed decisions.
But how can we scale economic literacy? Economics for Everyone (E4E), initially conceived as an approachable economics course for University of Chicago students in any major, has since grown into a free multimedia initiative for anyone interested in learning the fundamentals of economic thinking. Now, with the release of more than 30 new microeconomics videos and resources in English and Spanish, the initiative is making economics available to a broad swath of users—a step toward everyone, everywhere.
“E4E is designed to ignite curiosity in students at the dawn of their economic exploration,” said Prof. John List, who developed the first courses for the initiative in 2017 with Prof. Emeritus Steve Levitt.
The course is managed by the Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics, a world-renowned destination for economic research and innovative economics pedagogy.
