Editor's comment

Cullimore, Duncan

Welcome to the Spring edition of Teaching Economics and Business Studies. If you have comments about this one or ideas for the future or pieces for the journal please e mail me (duncan@avarndean.fsnet.co.uk). As in the previous edition we will be offering a 40 gift token to teachers who write pieces in the main section of the next journal

All writers will also receive an extra copy of the journal

This edition develops the themes of Curriculum 2000, Citizenship and ICT that were a feature of the Autumn Journal. As well as the reviews normally featured the 'classroom' sections contain more substantial evaluations of some of the latest GCE 'A' Level textbooks in Economics and Business Studies. Many thanks to Nancy Wall for her sterling work in co-ordinating all of the various reviews here.

In the last edition Steve Williams identified issues for Heads of Department on planning for Citizenship. In this edition Stephen

Fairbrass develops the points and investigates examples of practical ways in which teachers could address Citizenship topics in their lessons.

In the ICT on Line section

Richard Young and Andy Beharrell describe and evaluate the latest web based materials, particularly those offered by Biz/ed. This section and others contain useful web page references.

The update sections both cover the common ground of Economics and Business Studies. The Business Studies Update focuses on European Union enlargement and the implications for european business. The Economics Update focuses on economic growth, development and poverty and the extent to which initiatives including 'fair trade' can help promote development.

Finally can I put in a plug for the Annual Conference which will be in Leeds, March 9th - 11th (book now!!).
