Principles-Based Standards: On the Voluntary National Content Standards in Economics

Author

  • W. Lee Hansen

Abstract

The coalition of organizations and, in particular, the individuals charged with developing the national voluntary content standards in economics deserve our collective praise. Thanks to the writing committee, the process of composing and agreeing on the standards proceeded smoothly and swiftly. The result: the National Council on Economic Education's (NCEE 1977) newly published volume, Voluntary National Content Standards in Economics . This report should go a long way toward sharpening the focus, elevating the quality, and expanding the reach of economic education in the K-12 grades.
