This is a great application for schools to implement in their classrooms. However, not every school district has enough money to front $20,000 for this project. However, these students are using real money to make decisions on the stock market. Instead of picking random stocks in a virtual portfolio, these students are participating with real money. This is an outstanding project that can be used in any school district that can find $20,000 for this project. Also, it is interesting that their math skills have soared over the last five years to exceed state standards due to this project.
