Rating
0.0 stars

Students can explore these two investment game simulations and learn about the purpose of investing, the reasons for diversification of investments and explain the concept of risk tolerance including risk versus reward. Students may also be able to compare the advantages, disadvantages and ethical implications of various types of investments (stocks in this scenario). The STAX game is an interactive game, that allows students to diversify and try to beat the markets over 20 years. The Market Watch game is a simulation that used live prices and trading until the markets close (using fake money).  https://www.marketwatch.com/games/fin-lit-sk-2425/portfolio?pub=x05tAm55u24F  Password: investnow!
