Economic literacy is essential in an increasingly complex and interconnected world. Traditional methods of teaching economics, such as lectures and textbook learning, often fail to engage students or provide them with practical applications. This article explores innovative pedagogical approaches that enhance economic education, including experiential learning, gamification, digital simulations, and real-world problem-solving. These strategies foster critical thinking, financial literacy, and decision-making skills, ensuring that students grasp economic principles in a meaningful way. By integrating technology and active learning methods, educators can prepare the next generation for economic challenges and opportunities.
