Educational game, video or advanced text? Iconomix offers teachers a wide range unit types, each with different learning and media formats. In this way, Iconomix meets the diverse needs of teachers and learners as well as the broad spectrum of economic topics.
The Iconomix teaching unit portfolio comprises around 40 units in up to four languages (DE/FR/IT/EN). These are usually organised by topic – from supply and demand to common pool resources. But there is also a second, didactically interesting perspective: the distinction by unit type.
Currently, around 15 different unit types are available – ranging from playful educational games and interactive videos to in-depth advanced texts.
The choice of unit type depends on both the learning objectives and the subject matter to be taught. Each type has its own strengths: educational games foster interaction and playful understanding, videos are well suited to conveying complex content in a clear and memorable way and advanced texts support independent, in-depth study.
Filtering by type of unit with ease
To help you find the right teaching unit, Iconomix provides a practical filter function. With it, you can search directly for a specific type of unit as needed.
For example, are you interested in video topic blocks? In the advanced search, select the learning format «video-based» and then click on «Apply filter». Currently, there is one video-based module available in English (more options are offered in other languages).
Or do you prefer analogue units? In the advanced search, select the media type «analogue» and then click on «Apply filter». At present, two analogue modules are available in English (more options are offered in other languages).
Try out the filter function yourself and discover the diversity of Iconomix teaching units!
