Material Detail

This activity is intended to present a summary of financial crises in U.S. history. It is designated as an open architecture type framework in that the instructor can select as much or as little as he or she deems appropriate given classroom time constraints. Part I contains a brief PowerPoint formatted summary. The presentation provides a snapshot of key events that contributed to each of the crises and the events following the crisis. Part II is meant to be presented post lecture. In this part, the instructor has the option of presenting a short Jeopardy-style game to quiz and excite students on covered material. The activity is intended to make learning more fun and competitive. Finally, Part III contains a set of questions for homework. In the homework, students will be asked to research two specific U.S. banking crises on their own and consider the common thread linking each of the events. Students will also be asked to make comparisons.
