The revising of the National Content Standards in K–12 Economics

William Bosshardt and Sam Allgood

The Journal of Economic Education, 2026, vol. 57, issue 3, 320-325

Abstract: The Council for Economic Education released the third version of the National Content Standards in K–12 Economics in 2025. The third edition is a wholesale reorganization of the previous version. While the content of the standards remains true to the past versions, the reorganization has resulted in standards that look more like a course as opposed to a collection of concepts. The addition of a new standard on technology, the introduction of a dedicated international standard, an update of monetary policy content, and the inclusion of new concepts like network effects provide a needed update to the content of the standards.
