If you want to lighten a few of your economics lessons, you might want to visit the site of the ‘Stand Up Economist‘. you will find videos and jokes, but underlying the site are some genuine economics concepts. In fact to ‘get’ some of the jokes , your students will need to understand the underlying theories. You may be interested in a new publication by Yoram Bauman, the Stand Up Economist, ‘The Cartoon Introduction to Economics, Volume 1: Microeconomics.’ You can buy this from the website or from Amazon.
