EFIAH New York, 2008
“FTE’s approach to the infusion of history and economics is both scholarly and appropriate pedagogically. The activities are an appropriate blend of scholarship and student activism. Such a program should be a cornerstone in professional development.” – Thomas Hornish, Westfield High School
“This is my second FTE program (Economics for Leaders last year) and it is also fantastic! The professional attitude is much appreciated and the depth of scholarship is top-rate. As so many teachers have so little economics background, yet increasing pressure/demand to teach, this program fills a gap and then some.” – Karen Stark, Westfield High School
EFIAH Gettysburg, 2008
“Fantastic – every teacher of economics should NOT miss out on this learning opportunity!” – Bess Caldwell, Chillicothe High School
