Teaching Resources for Undergraduate Economics (TRUE)
Teaching Resources for Undergraduate Economics (TRUE) is a set of sub-sites on which lecturers share teaching materials in fifteen specialist areas of Economics.
More than four hundred resources are available through the sites, each of which is led by a senior academic in that field.
The TRUE Showcase has some examples of the most interesting resources shared by the project.
