Welcome

Welcome to the learning community designed and managed by Ms. Rita Callahan, instuctor of economics and mathematics. Most of you are current or former students from my classes. I trust you will enjoy this attempt to connect our studies to the real world. From time to time I will make observations on my experiences and things I read. I hope you will comment and add your observations as well.


There is much to learn form others, especially those whose experiences may differ from our own. As I mention elsewhere in this blog, this is my attempt to incorporate 21st century learning formats into the educational experience of my students. Perhaps this will invite some interesting discussions.

Great News!

This morning I read this exciting article in USA Today online. I wanted to share it with my students and decided to post it on my blog for all. As a baby boomer who witnessed America's great manufacturing era, I am more than pleased to read of the resurgance of this sector of our economy. I believe it is truly the path to economic growth which in turn is the most commonly acceptable path our of our federal deficit situation. Most importantly it is a healthy way to insure a large middle class so crucial to a democracy!
