Abstract

Instructors in principles of economics classes are incorporating more popular press material into their classes. This helps breathe life into economics and shows students that economic concepts can be applied in the real world. The current pedagogical literature on this topic often includes examples of popular media and assignments to go along with them. This approach has, by and large, not been extended to intermediate or upper-level courses. This paper develops an extensive list of long-form articles, podcasts, documentaries, and even a Hollywood film related to environmental economics that instructors can use in the classroom. Also included are discussion questions, response prompts, and a term paper assignment. By incorporating some of the myriad popular media artifacts that cover environmental issues into their courses, instructors of environmental economics can help their students apply what they learn in the textbook to real-life events.

野生环境经济学:在课堂上使用长篇新闻报道和其他大众媒体
经济学原理课程的教师正在将更多的大众媒体材料纳入他们的课堂。这有助于为经济学注入活力,并向学生展示经济学概念可以应用于现实世界。目前有关这一主题的教学文献通常包括流行媒体的例子和与之配套的作业。这种方法基本上还没有推广到中级或高级课程中。本文列举了大量与环境经济学相关的长篇文章、播客、纪录片,甚至一部好莱坞电影,供教师在课堂上使用。此外还包括讨论问题、回答提示和学期论文作业。通过将涉及环境问题的大量流行媒体作品纳入课程,环境经济学教师可以帮助学生将课本中的知识应用于现实生活中的事件。

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
