Computers/Internet to teach economics

As technology is strongly increasing throughout the world, it is even increasing in schools as well. Many schools are beginning to use iPads, laptops, nooks, etc. Teachers generally use the internet to help students with researching. Computers in schools are also used for different assignments such as a writing assignment.


Computers and/or Internet can be used to teach economics as well. It can help for researching different strategies and trends. For example, it can be used to search the different strategies and find data for data presentations in economics. Presentations can be the easiest way to teach economics and to do that you need use of a computer and the Internet.

Another example that has to deal with this is our own schools library database. People use this to search and research things. This can also be used to search facts and information for economics, social studies, English, and many more different subjects.
