Research in Economic Education Database Searchable database for researchers in economic education maintained by William Walstad at the National Center for Research in Economic Education at University of Nebraska-Lincoln. These pages are reviews of the available microcomputer programs that can be used for teaching economics. Most of the software is provided by textbook publishers as ancillary material for college principles of economics textbooks. The software reviewed is limited to programs produced and distributed by textbook publishers and other organizations. Faculty and students can create graphs by placing coordinates, see the associated equations, and other clever activities.
