Money Talks

Aims

  • to give an insight into the possible different attitudes to personal financial management of the members of a family
  • to stimulate students to think about their own attitudes to managing their finances
  • to encourage students to investigate sources of information about some financial issues and how to manage them

Learning outcomes

As a result of watching the programme and using the material in the Net Notes students should be able to:

  • discuss a variety of approaches to managing personal finances
  • explain their own approach to managing at least one aspect of their finances
  • investigate at least one source of information (preferably web-based) about a financial issue which interests them
  • imagine how they would approach a major financial issue when they are older, e.g. going to university or buying a car

The issues around the topics covered are developed further in programmes 2 and 3 of Looking after the Penneys. It may be more useful to concentrate on one financial topic in more depth here and save the investigation of others when using the later episodes.
