The philosophy of the Cal State University, East Bay Center for Economic Education is that all students who participate in the Stock Market Simulation are winners as they learn to apply economic decision making skills to the world of economics and investing.
Because some teams enjoy viewing the simulation as a competition, we recognize teams with the largest portfolio values in the following ways:
- The top three teams in the high school division and the top three teams in the middle school division will be mailed Amazon.com gift certificates. First place team members in each division will receive $25 gift certificates, second place team members will receive $20 gift certificates, and third place teams members will receive $15 gift certificates. (Maximum, five gift certificates per team.)
- The top five high school teams and the top five middle school teams and their teacher will be mailed Cal State East Bay Stock Market Simulation t-shirts. (T-shirts may also be purchased from the Center for Economic Education for $10 each.)
Attention Please!
In order to qualify for prizes, your teams must comply with all the rules of the simulation! We ask that you read the rules that are included in this portfolio, and remind students to read them, understand them, and follow them. For your convenience, the rules may also be found online at csusms.com/eastbay.
We are pleased to announce the names of the top five teams in each division for the Spring 2010 California SMS.
