Project Abstract

Abstract
This research study investigates the impact of incorporating technology in teaching economics, particularly focusing on high school students. The integration of technology in education has become increasingly prevalent in recent years, with educators recognizing its potential to enhance learning outcomes and engage students in new and innovative ways. This study aims to explore how the use of technology, such as digital resources, online platforms, and interactive tools, can influence the teaching and learning of economics in a high school setting. The research will be conducted as a case study, with a sample of high school students participating in economics classes that incorporate technology-based teaching methods. The study will utilize a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys to gather data on student perceptions and performance, and qualitative interviews to gain insights into the experiences and attitudes of both students and teachers. The literature review will examine existing research on the use of technology in education, with a specific focus on economics instruction. Key themes will include the benefits and challenges of technology integration, the impact on student engagement and motivation, and the effectiveness of different types of technology tools in teaching economics concepts. The research methodology will involve the design and implementation of technology-enhanced economics lessons, followed by data collection through surveys and interviews. The study will also consider factors such as teacher training, infrastructure support, and student access to technology in the school environment. The findings of the research will provide valuable insights into the potential benefits and challenges of incorporating technology in teaching economics to high school students. The discussion will explore the implications of the study results for educators, policymakers, and other stakeholders interested in enhancing economics education through the use of technology. In conclusion, this research aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on technology integration in education and provide practical recommendations for improving economics instruction in high schools. By exploring the impact of technology on teaching and learning in the specific context of economics education, this study seeks to inform future efforts to leverage technology for educational innovation and improvement.

Project Overview
