This lesson plan and its linked article help students to understand the basic incentive structure economic systems provide. Students will 1) engage in a simulation that demonstrates the ?Tragedy of the Commons?; 2) understand that different incentives create different results in the economy; and 3) explain how an economic system based on private ownership and free markets provides incentives to manage resources wisely and creates better likelihood of prosperity.
