Digital resources in financial education: premises for implementation in primary education

Abstract

The digital resources available online provide quality teaching material so that students become familiar in a pleasant, simple, fun and playful way at the same time with elements of economic culture, so that they can easily enter the exciting world of money. From asking for money to making money is a distance that can be covered if certain basic, elementary information is acquired, which leads to certain financial skills that result in certain financial behaviors necessary in the attitude of tomorrow's adult - today's student. As the online environment is very accessible to most people, we consider that spending time in virtual learning new things, assimilating some notions in the financial field is a method available to anyone to inform themselves so as to avoid financially unpleasant situations in time, such as "loans", "card overdrafts", "mortgages", "guarantees", etc., especially when these are not necessarily necessary. The proposed study describes the current situation of the subject taught in the traditional school, analyzes the financial skills of students in contrast to the financial skills of students who do not study this subject. The research problem is related to the inability of students to intelligently manage a sum of money due to poor and insufficient training in the use of useful digital resources that can train their early financial skills.
