Supporting Two-year College Economics Faculty at the Conference on Teaching and Research in Economic Education

本项目将支持40名两年制大学经济学教师（20个团队，每年2名教师）参加2016年和2017年美国经济学会（AEA）经济教育教学与研究年会（CTREE）。每年的CTREE会议已经成为提高高等教育学生经济学学习的焦点。除了将两个人的教师团队带到CTREE之外，该项目还要求每个教师参与者完成一个课程重新设计项目。已完成的40个重新设计项目将在科学教育资源中心网站“社区大学经济学”上公布，供公众使用，该网站是在线门户网站“起点：教与学经济学”的一部分（可在http://serc.carleton.edu/econ/index.html上输入）。随后的研讨会将确定新的经济学两年制教员领导，他们将与美国经济学会的代表合作，维持两年制教员参与CTREE和其他美国经济学会的教学项目。

This project will support forty (40) two-year college economics faculty (twenty teams of two faculty members each year) to attend the 2016 and 2017 American Economic Association's (AEA) annual Conference on Teaching and Research in Economic Education (CTREE). The annual CTREE conferences have become the focus of efforts to improve student learning of economics in higher education. In addition to bringing two-person teams of faculty to CTREE, the project will require each faculty participant to complete a curriculum redesign project. The forty completed redesign projects will be posted for public use at the Science Education Resource Center website, Economics at Community Colleges which is part of the online portal called Starting Point: Teaching and Learning Economics (that can be entered at http://serc.carleton.edu/econ/index.html). A follow-on workshop will identify new economics two-year faculty leadership who will work with representatives of the AEA to sustain two-year faculty involvement with CTREE and other AEA teaching and learning projects.
