Application-Based Activities
Application-Based Activities (ABAs) are economics simulations that give students an immersive experience in course content. Each ABA is developed to drive a deeper level of content understanding. Students practice their critical-thinking and problem-solving skills as they apply course concepts to real-life scenarios and see the implications of their decisions as they go. The tool provides specific feedback based upon student responses for support when it matters most. Each activity is designed to last around 15-minutes. Actual economic FRED data coming to ABAs in Connect for Fall 2025 courses.
