Economic Understanding of Senior Students in the Omaha, Nebraska Public High Schools
Abstract
It is clearly evident that our nation's secondary schools are being called upon to assume greater responsibility in the area of economic education. Coupled with this demand is a severe criticism of our schools' present efforts in this area. Leaders in government, labor, business and education are campaigning for schools to provide American youth with more understanding and deeper appreciation of our free enterprise system. Our democratic society will not survive beyond the day when our citizens fail to discharge the political economic responsibilities which democracy places upon them. This point of view is being expressed: Since economic behavior involves decisions by citizens the schools have to share the responsibility for equipping students to permit such decisions to be made more intelligently.
