Abstract
Running the British Economy (RBE) has established itself as the most powerful computer based teaching tool in economics. This description of the characteristics, and the success, of RBE, will demonstrate that there now exists a major opportunity to develop and disseminate a version of RBE for individual European countries. This is both an invitation and a challenge for participants: we are interested in disseminating RBE throughout Europe because we believe its use can make a significant contribution to economics teaching and learning. To make this happen, however, we require collaboration with educational institutions in other countries.
