→ FinÉcoLab educational games: for fun learning about financial and economic concepts!

The FinécoLab educational games kit is a completely free online tool that makes teaching economics and finance effective, fun and easy. It allows students to discover economics through experimentation. Experiments take the form of educational simulations in which participants have to make simple economic decisions - how to buy, sell, cooperate, save... The decisions made during the game and the results are then used as a basis for exploring the economic and financial concepts under study. Since this year, the game kit is also available in English.
