Many of today’s students arrive in class with headphones on, listening to the latest hit song or watching the newest viral video. They often question learning material that they can simply “Google” and struggle with applying textbook concepts to the world around them. As educators, we are continually struggling to find ways to reach each of these students by engaging them in the learning process. Rockonomix, a student-produced music video parody project, helps motivate student learning by using popular media to reinforce basic economic principles. This competition is open to all Florida High School students!

*** Unfortunately, due to Covid we will be postponing Rockonomix this semester. We plan on bringing this program back in Spring 2022! ***
