Students completed an online budget creation simulation at http://www.crfb.org/stabilizethedebt/# in which they had to make budget allocation choices; e.g. increasing or cutting education funding, veteran's benefits, military costs, and/or NASA funding.
A worksheet was created to ask students about their decision making, and to see how well they did in reducing the deficit. ]]> 2017-02-23 16:01:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tftaylor/scpsdlday/wish/155791870 hahoover https://padlet.com/tftaylor/scpsdlday/wish/155799472 2017-02-23 16:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/tftaylor/scpsdlday/wish/155799472
