Description

This package includes the Personal Finance Lab Budgeting Game, Stock Game, and complete Curriculum Library!

In The Budgeting Game

 

Our budgeting game puts your students in the role of a college student with a part-time job. Students review their expected monthly cash inflow, and then review their expected expenses of rent, car loan, groceries, utilities, etc.

Students then roll the online dice and advance through the days of the month and face life’s random events. Flat tires on the way to work, unexpectedly high utility bills, expensive grocery bills, and medical bills all present challenges for students to survive on their limited cash flow. They will have to use their credit card at times to “make ends meet.” Then they have to remember to pay their bills on time or they see their credit score drop, their late fees pile up, and their interest rates increase. 

Decisions they make in the game have long-lasting consequences too! The decision trees follow probabilities – so students are encouraged to identify their own personal level of risk they are comfortable with. For example, students need to decide whether to work, study, socialize, or take care of chores each weekend. Working extra hours helps their bottom line, but neglecting their studies can result in expensive emergency tutoring sessions!

Teachers also control the “fixed expenses” each month, the wage students earn at their job, the income tax rate, and the types of Life Events that appear. There is a large common stock, but teachers can add in more events relating to “contracts”, “insurance”, “investing”, and several other categories to ensure the events in the budget game correspond to what students are learning in class.

In The Stock Game

With the Personal Finance Stock Market Game is the world’s most complete high school stock market game, with live streaming prices and rankings, dozens of customizable teacher reports, built-in research tools, and much more! With the stock game, you get:

  • Your class, your rules: Choose your own class dates and trading settings (over 50 customization options per class!)
  • Live streaming rankings of your entire class for extra engagement
  • Built-in research, both in the Research Center and directly in the trading page
  • Interactive charts, company news feeds, streaming prices
  • Dozens of customizable teacher reports
  • Ability to have students work independently or in Teams, adding team portfolios and rankings in addition to the individual portfolios and rankings

The Curriculum

Our customizable curriculum library has over 300 lessons aligned to both state and national standards for Personal Finance, Economics, Accounting, Management, Marketing, Investing, and Math classes. Each week, pick and choose which topics you want to include, based on your class’s specific course outline. 

Lessons include articles (between 1000 and 2000 words each, written between a 6th and 9th grade reading level), videos, infographics, and mini-games. Each lesson ends with a “pop quiz”, acting as an assessment. Teachers can choose whether students can re-take quizzes for a higher score, or if the first attempt gets saved to a “grade book”. At the end of each week’s Assignment, teachers can also include a final Unit Assessment, borrowing quiz questions from the material that preceded it. We also included our Investing 101 Beginner’s Investing Course, a 10-chapter e-learning course guiding students from the very basics through advanced research and trading techniques centered on personal investing.

This all comes packed with teacher reports, student feedback, and engaging ties back to the stock game and budget game! We also have a library of lesson plans showing how to use the lessons in class (along with more direct instruction and group-based activities), plus a library of Google Slides presentations accompanying our most popular Lessons, so they can be used both for direct instruction and self-directed learning.

The Career Center

As a bonus, all classes on Personal Finance Lab have access to our Career Center! This resource has resume help and job/internship search tips, plus information on the most important certifications in the finance industry necessary to launch a career. It also includes our Job and Internship Search Tool, which pulls in over 500,000 real job and internship postings from Indeed and ZipRecruiter.

This can be used both for students to find and apply for internships, or as a class tool for students to “work backwards” from their dream job to build a plan on how they will build all the necessary skills and experience.
