Description:

We speak with Philip Dituri from FiCycle.org about financial literacy: while so important in the real world, but is somehow rarely discussed or taught in schools. Philip shares how we can answer the common question “when will I ever need this in real life?” He shares how teachers can blend their existing curriculum with contextual lessons based in personal finance, and we discuss why we need to prepare students for life, not just tests. 

You’ll Learn: 

  • How we can answer When will I ever need this in real life?
  • How I can blend my curriculum with lessons based in a personal finance context;
  • Why we should be teaching financial literacy and algebra in concert; and,
  • Why we need to prepare students for life - not tests.
