Definition

  • In schools throughout the world, classes of students studying economics are usually encouraged to participate in stock market games in which a person will be given a notional sum of money to “invest” on shares on the stock market. This will mean that they will be testing their skills against other students in the class, with prizes awarded for those who have made the biggest paper profit.
