About EconPort

Microeconomics education plays an important role in preparing future business leaders and practitioners and is a central part of social science education for students in economics and other major fields of study. Recent developments in economic theory and electronic commerce call for significant innovations in course content, design, and delivery. In addition, an emerging trend is to support the students' active participation in economic decision-making and strategic game-playing with online market experiment and game software.

EconPort is an Open Archives Initiative (OAI)-compliant collection of Microeconomics education material that incorporates a handbook of economic and game-theoretic instructional text that is integrated with active online resources, including software for running experiments. Some of the experimental software incorporates software agents that can be used for implementing strategies in markets and games.
