Integrating the Contents of Financial Literacy in the Teaching Process: Teachers' Perspectives
European Journal of Educational Research, v11 n4 p2265-2274 2022
The article deals with financial education. The data were collected as part of the Slovenian project "NA-MA POTI" (NAroslovje, MAtematika, Pismenost, Opolnomocenje, Tehnologija, Interaktivnost- Science, Mathematics, Literacy, Empowerment, Technology, Interactivity), which aims, among other things, to promote financial literacy at the national level. The aim of the survey presented here is to determine teachers' attitudes towards financial literacy and their teaching strategies in teaching topics related to financial literacy. A total of 158 teachers participated in the survey. The results show that most teachers agree that financial literacy is important. Those teachers who agreed that financial literacy is important were also statistically significantly more likely to use group work, approaches and work methods that require the development of critical thinking and authentic tasks, which provides a good foundation for knowledge transfer in everyday life.
