We believe that optimal learning occurs when students are engaged and see personal relevance to the content. Computer simulation technology allows for experience-based learning that enhances understanding of complex subject matters.
“Tell me, I forget. Show me, I remember. Involve me, I understand.”
- Chinese proverb
“Instructional simulations have the potential to engage students in "deep learning" that empowers understanding as opposed to "surface learning" that requires only memorization.”
- Pedagogy in Action, the SERC portal for Educators
“When students become engaged within simulations based upon real world situations, they become immersed in practical examples of abstract theoretical constructs…. this form of teaching improves both knowledge retention and long-term student learning.”
- Dr. V.K. Maheshwari, B.Sc. M. Ed, Ph. D
Unlike other programs, students learn about personal finance by simulating life-like decision-making and learning the financial implications of such decisions.
Students simulate decisions about attending college, getting students loans, selecting a career, choosing a lifestyle and investing their savings, and learn how these life decisions impact their financial wellness.
Personal finance literacy is obtained in a highly personalized context, optimizing learning and understanding.
Our Financial Life Simulator comes with companion instructional slides and classroom materials, activities and assessments. We believe teachers are the secret sauce to the learning journey of their students.
We partner with schools and teachers to customize a program that fits your students’ needs. Curriculum can range from week-long workshops to full year courses.
