Graphic representations of various concepts in microeconomics (e.g. monopoly, consumer and producer surplus, Edgeworth Box), macroeconomics (e.g. Solow growth model, Keynesian cross, Lorenz Curve and Gini coefficient), game theory (e.g. Nash equilibrium in 3x3 game, binomial tree) and financial theory (e.g. net present value, price-yield curve). Submitted by various authors in Mathematica, with short explanation of underlying theory, and options to manipulate the diagram by changing the different variables. To do this, and view the demonstrations in the browser, requires download of the Mathematica Player browser plug-in which is available for Windows, Linux or Mac. These form part of the Wolfram Demonstrations Project, hosted on the website of independent scientist Stephen Wolfram as a development of his popular Mathematica program.
Interactive Tutorials in International Economics
Alberto Isgut, Tanya Rosenblat, Ganesan Ravishanker, et al., Wesleyan University
"Ricardian Explorer is an interactive computer game that simulates the functioning of the Ricardian model of international trade. The game is developed as a tool to complement courses in international trade, but it can be used in introductory and intermediate microeconomics courses as well. In addition, the program provides for different game specifications which allow experimental economists to design experiments and use Ricardian Explorer to collect data for their studies." You need to set up an account as an instructor to play the game or allow your students to play. The service is free.
