Financial Literacy for Massachusetts High School Students
Pubblico DepositedContenuto scaricabile
open in viewerIn the United States, college debt is a serious issue, with the total student debt totaling $1.757 trillion and the average college student leaving school with $39,590 in debt (Hanson, 2023). MassEdCO, a non-profit organization in Massachusetts, sponsored us to create a resource to help combat this student debt problem. To start, we conducted background research to better understand the intricacies of the student debt problem and financial literacy. We then conducted interviews with experts in the field, as well as focus groups with students, to better understand the most important parts of financial literacy in regards to post-secondary education. Finally, we compiled our data and, using our knowledge of games, created an interactive resource for MassEdCO to use with their students in the form of a card game.
