Economics Q&A is a new resource on the tutor2u Economics Blog.

  • Are your students reluctant to ask something in class?
  • Would it help for them to find a simple but authoritative explanation for something they really need to know?
  • Are they confused about an economics term, concept or policy - but won’t admit it?
  • Would a second opinion, a relevant example or a different perspective help to build understanding?

Thats the idea of Economics Q&A. Students pose the questions, and our team of Economics Blog authors have a go at replying.

To keep things concise and focused, we’ve nicked an idea from Twitter. Each question has a maximum of 140 characters.

Each day we’ll pick out at least one question and write a short, punchy answer.

Questions can be submitted to Economics Q&A here.
