AP Economics can be a daunting course to teach. Most AP Economics teachers are the only ones teaching the course in their school, making it difficult to exchange ideas and discuss teaching techniques. Therefore, this workshop will enable current and potential AP teachers to share their best practices for macroeconomics and microeconomics. The presenter will highlight key concepts in the courses. Each attendee will bring one or two best practices of their own to share with the group. All participants will leave with numerous ways to review for the upcoming AP economics exams. I you are new to the course, or have been teaching AP Macro or Micro for a few years, please come as the lessons being presented can only improve your test results.
