RELEVANT AND RELATABLE EXAMPLES AND CASES ENGAGE STUDENTS
Games of Strategy, Fifth Edition, has the most engaging, student-oriented examples on the market. Students explore a variety of topics, such as how Congress and the Federal Reserve interact when setting fiscal and monetary policy, what we can learn from data gathered by Wimbledon’s new ball tracking system “Hawkeye” and side-blotched lizards in California. Students can also delve into issues concerning student life, such as grade inflation and why roommates wait for the other one to buy the common items (soap, ketchup etc.) and therefore, why they always run out.
