My Take
What I liked about the website is that is it extremely user friendly and it appeals to a wide range of learners. The different sections within the site teach students about young entrepreneurs, financial and business concepts, sample high school resumes are available with possible interview questions, as well games that demonstrate supply and demand. The site also offers learners the opportunity to budget and investment plans.
How I Use It
You can use this site to teach an introduction to economics and personal; finance. The website has videos and curriculum that connect to classroom content.

Overall this project is quite good as a learning tool the teacher can pick and choose what videos and resources they want to use based on what they are teaching in economics or related fields. There are plenty of good resources to use for a variety of grade level and cognitive ability. I would recommend you take a close look at this product.
