  • Calculator: “Calculate Your Debt-to-Income Ratio”
    Comparing your earnings against your spending , also known as a debt-to-income ratio, is one of the most popular approaches for evaluating if you have too much debt.

The Mouse rules! This episode reveals the hidden financial POWER that young people and all Internet users have today in an exciting discussion between Dr. Kathy King and Mark Gura. They explore how students, young adults and all Internet users have tremendous power charting and shaping the decisions of big business, research and development decisions, and marketing efforts across the globe. Better understanding the students we work with in k-12 and also adult learners, helps us to better address and meet their financial literacy needs. In addition, we can demonstrate to them how much financial POWER they have in each mouse click, and that their age group- whatever it is– has great power and importance to the business world. What a fantastic basis for realizing their roles and need to be critical consumers and demand what they want. Drawing upon several outstanding recent articles about digital technology and teenager habits and brain development, Kathy and Mark further synthesize the major books which have contributed to our better understanding of the impact of users and the Internet on finance through business today.

The Great Seduction  - NY Times Article

By DAVID BROOKS,

NY Times OP-ED COLUMNIST

(June 10, 2008)

“Money. The Puritan legacy inhibited luxury and self-indulgence. Benjamin Franklin spread a practical gospel that emphasized hard work, temperance and frugality. Millions of parents, preachers, newspaper editors and teachers expounded the message. The result was quite remarkable.
……
Over the past 30 years, much of that has been shredded. The social norms and institutions that encouraged frugality and spending what you earn have been undermined. The institutions that encourage debt and living for the moment have been strengthened”

Article   

“The Definition of Character Education” ASCD website
“Character education involves teaching children about basic human values including honesty, kindness, generosity, courage, freedom, equality, and respect.
The goal is to raise children to become morally responsible, self-disciplined citizens. Problem solving, decision making, and conflict resolution are important parts of developing moral character. Through role playing and discussions, students can see that their decisions affect other people and things.”

The emergence of simulations has taken the game industry by storm, but having fun while learning to be a CEO and become adept at financial literacy?
This isn’t our traditional school days! Instead, media companies have developed accurate, compelling simulation games which put learners(of all ages) into the director’s chair as they guide their company to success.

Johnny Money Game

  • Will they make the right decisions?
  • OR will they be swayed by false information, incorrect projections or allegiances?

Kathy and Mark provide another riveting episode of Talking Financial Literacy in which they tour several of the best online games related to financial literacy learning.

Listen in for abundant resources, perspectives on critical thinking and constructivism all to continue our quest for developing better understanding and practice in personal finance. You will discover

• Several free online video games which teach entrepreneurship through virtual reality simulations
•  Educators’ inside looks at ease of setup, use, application and benefits of these programs.

Article
• From Entrepreneur.com

“Game Plans”

A very different use of games for “financial learning” File under Innovative Thinking

“Now Bellevue, Washington-based SimplyFun offers its own line of games, puzzles, puppets and other family activities. The exclusivity of the products is essential to direct-sales success, according to Molen and DeGiulio, because the products don’t have to compete with any others and the consultants don’t have to compete with retail stores. “We want to make it easy for the consultants to be successful,” says DeGiulio. To that end, they provide training in person, online, by video and through conference calls; choose not to charge their consultants for their website or require them to keep any inventory; and offer incentives to encourage their consultants to reach certain goals.

But they also realize that attracting and keeping consultants is about more than just money and rewards. “For your consultants to be excited and passionate about what you’re doing, they have to feel attached and connected to your mission,” says Molen. “Our mission is to promote play and get people to laugh, create memories and connect through face-to-face fun.” Guided by that mission, they have signed more than 1,000 consultants in 45 states, and the company saw 60 percent growth last year.”

  • Set in the year 2035, JA Titan creates a world in which players are CEOs of their own companies. Originally conceived in the 1980s as the Management and Economic Simulation Exercise, or MESE, JA Titan is a widely recognized business simulation for high school students. During game play, students must run a manufacturing company and master six key business decisions: price of product, production levels, marketing expenses, research and development costs, capital investment level, and charitable giving. Various corporate assistants “help” the player through each phase, or “quarter,” of game play. In 2000, JA Worldwide™ (Junior Achievement) launched JA Titan under its current name as a Web-based product. ….

    Success in JA Titan is measured by a “Performance Index,” an evaluation of each fictional company’s performance based on the following:
    * Retained Earnings (50%)
    * Supply and Demand Potential (20%)
    * Productivity (10%)
    * Market Share (10%)
    * Growth (10%)

Lead Article

Pretend money may produce real academic gains
Students at a Washington, D.C., KIPP charter school earn pretend paychecks for completing homework, behaving well and improving academically and can trade the fake dollars for small items at the school store, like pens and pencil cases, or exchange it for rewards like being allowed to wear casual clothes on Fridays. The rewards motivate the children initially and help them develop better study habits; eventually, however, success becomes its own reward, say the program’s backers, such as principal Sarah Hayes of KEY Academy, which now sports some of D.C.’s top test scores despite its population of low-income, disadvantaged students.
