The Smart Indiana Competitions
The Smart Indiana Stock Market Programs are engaging, real world competitions that advance students’ academic achievement in the core disciplines and enhance understanding of economics, personal finance, and investing among learners.
The Fall and Spring Simulations provide the “classic” simulation experience. Students manage their portfolios for a ten week period. They are able to compare their portfolio performance to other student portfolios across the state and region. The Stock Market Program is primarily used in grades 4 through 12. www.econed-in.org or www.smartindiana.org
