Council for Economic Educators Seeks Teachers Grades 4-12 for Personal Finance Test Reviews

POSTED: August 6, 2015 | BY: Margaret Brooks

The Council for Economic Education (CEE) is seeking teachers in grades 4 to 12 who will have their students take one of the CEE’s three new personal finance tests:

• Test of Financial Literacy (TFL) for grades 11 to 12. 50 test items.

• Test of Financial Knowledge (TFK) for grades 7 to 9. 45 test items.

• Basic Finance Test (BFT) for grades 4 to 6. 35 test items.

All students are eligible to take a test regardless of whether they have had personal finance instruction in school (course, unit, or lessons). All students know something about personal finance through various activities: school work, talking with parents or other adults, watching the news, browsing the Internet, participating in community program, or life experiences.

The testing will be conducted nationwide using CEE’s Online Assessment Center http://www.councilforeconed.org/r…/online-assessment-center/ The test is all multiple-choice and should take a class period. A few demographic questions are asked the end of the test to be used for overall analysis. The CEE will ensure the privacy of students and will not know their names. Teachers register their students with anonymous codes and only they know the identity of students.

If you are interested in participating, please fill out this short survey about your students and the class you are teaching. https://docs.google.com/…/1oQ2TVN4VXB-1pH3H3Mtg3bz…/viewform Once completed, you will receive a confirmation with brief instructions on how to proceed.
