註釋This teacher's guide is part of a 2-volume set presenting economic reasoning as it might be taught and practiced in secondary school classrooms. The book explains and illustrates a particular approach to reasoning and shows students how to use this approach to think about problems and to imagine solutions. Thirty-five mysteries (problems) are presented to help students practice reasoning skills. The book provides teachers with an overview of economic thinking; a model lesson plan for grades 9-12; a guide that gives the solution to each mystery; and 35, often humorous, mysteries. The mysteries, lessons, and activities in the book are correlated to the "Voluntary National Content Standards in Economics," which were developed and published by the National Council on Economic Education. Chapter titles include: (1) "Economic Reasoning for Kids: An Overview"; (2) "Using the Mysteries: A Teacher's Guide"; (3) "Contemporary Economic Mysteries"; (4) "Public Choice Mysteries"; (5) "Environmental Mysteries"; and (6) "Writing Your Own Mysteries."
