Very interesting how this zero-sum approach that we’ve been facing here in the UK is now emerging in the US. Much of what @mayasen.bsky.social says here is relevant for the UK *without student number controls* - no fixed pie here either but that doesn’t stop folks from thinking that there is 🤷🏽♀️
If in the process of revising programmes and reading lists for the next academic year, don’t forget to ask your library to order "Teaching Macroeconomics: A Modern and Inclusive Approach." www.e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/tea...
Ch 1 is free, it describes each chapter in the book.

Generally a good time to be thankful to be in the UK rather than elsewhere, but particular so due to things like this
(Comments section of the Guardian quick crossword)
One of the great pleasures of my time at Oxford was lecturing on the Edgeworth box at the Gulbenkian and then walking by that cemetery! Somehow my students weren’t as amused by the Edgeworth box/ Edgeworth in a box joke as I was 🧐
Best thing about #Christmas ?! Explaining to the 11 yr old what a bank run is 💸

Is there an Econ Ed Starter pack pls?
Welcome new #Economists moving to #EconSky!
I have a thread of Starter Packs in the link if you are seeking your people. The lack of algorithm means *you need to follow people* otherwise you will experience BlueSky as dead.
If I've missed an Econ-relevant Starter Pack, let me know in my DMs.
Honoured to have our work featured in the Fall 2024 edition of the @aeainformation.bsky.social EconEd News, w Director @paramachaudhury.bsky.social & Assoc Director @cloda.bsky.social!

Up north today and it's a stunning day! Looking forward to presenting at the @coreecon.bsky.social workshop on (what else 😏) AI and assessment and meeting the fab folks at Durham #Economics📉📈 to discuss their programmes!
Yes we follow it quite closely. What our students struggle with is the story arc and starting early with strategic behaviour whereby have done demand-supply curves and v mechanical econ at school. Our students also have Maths A levels coming in though it can (and has) be taught w/o that maths
