Today’s youth are more “wired” than any previous generation. At the Federal Reserve Bank, we recognize this and employ an interactive video game as the central tool of the New England Economic Adventure, our flagship program for teaching middle-schoolers and high school students about economic history. Interactive learning is hands-on and immediate. The experience is dynamic and exciting for participants and, we hope, makes a lasting impression. Games are an integral part of our culture and our economy. They are here to stay.
