December 2009 TEACHING FINANCIAL LITERACY IN K-12 SCHOOLS: A SURVEY OF TEACHER BELIEFS AND KNOWLEDGE BY DAN OTTER B.A., Journalism, San Diego State University, 1988 M.S., Curriculum Design, California State University, Fullerton, 1999 DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Language, Literacy, & Sociocultural Studies The University of New Mexico Albuquerque, New Mexico May, 2010 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The completion of this project would not have been possible without the enormous help of numerous individuals. My advisor, Dr. Penny Pence, not only encouraged the exploration of this important topic, but also provided keen guidance and support. Each of my committee members — Dr. Cheryl Torrez, Dr. Nathalie Martin, and Dr. Don Zancanella — provided expertise that greatly enhanced this project. Dr. Torrez was particularly helpful with the analysis of the findings. Dr. Martin’s financial literacy expertise, especially in the area of predatory lending, was invaluable. Finally, Dr. Zancanella’s ability to succinctly frame large conceptual issues and challenges aided not only this work, but will inform future projects. It truly takes a village to complete a task of this scope. My parents, David and Barbara, were unbelievably supportive. They also provided timely babysitting services. Lily and Ben, my adorable children, were not only a key motivation for this project, but also a source of inspiration, often saying: “You can do it!” There is not enough space to document the way my wife, Mandy, helped with this project. Suffice to say, this dissertation would not have happened without her love, support, and guidance. Finally, I want to thank the University of New Mexico for a truly life-changing experience. iii TEACHING FINANCIAL LITERACY IN K-12 SCHOOLS: A SURVEY OF TEACHER BELIEFS AND KNOWLEDGE BY DAN OTTER ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Language, Literacy, & Sociocultural Studies The University of New Mexico Albuquerque, New Mexico May, 2010 TEACHING FINANCIAL LITERACY IN K-12 SCHOOLS: A SURVEY OF TEACHER BELIEFS AND KNOWLEDGE BY DAN OTTER B.A., Journalism, San Diego State University, 1988 M.S., Curriculum Design, California State University, Fullerton, 1999 Ph.D., Language, Literacy, & Sociocultural Studies, The University of New Mexico, 2010 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to learn teacher attitudes and beliefs about teaching personal finance, as well as teacher understanding of a few core personal finance concepts. The population consisted of 1,120 classroom teachers from two public school districts in two states. The research questions were: (a) What are teacher attitudes and beliefs about personal finance instruction? (b) What are teacher understandings of a few core personal finance concepts? Data were gathered using a survey instrument. Questions were divided into four categories: (1) policy; (2) instruction; (3) professional development; and (4) concept knowledge. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze survey responses. The response rate was 16 percent, or 181 classroom teachers. Participants in this survey strongly support the teaching of personal finance topics in K-12 schools. Close to 83 percent agree or strongly agree with the statement, “It is important for schools to teach financial literacy.” Teachers at all grade levels in this study — elementary, middle, and v high school — favor starting personal finance instruction in elementary school. Lack of suitable curriculum, lack of classroom materials, lack of instruction time, and lack of subject matter knowledge were identified as barriers to successful personal finance instruction. Respondents preferred format for professional development is a workshop that increases teacher financial literacy. The mean score for the 12 personal finance questions was 37.5 percent. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF

A Tale of Two Movements: Consumer Protection in the U.S. from 1969 to 2010 Abstract The passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and subsequent establishment of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau marked an unexpected victory for consumers across America at the expense of the well-financed business lobby. Although classical social scientists, such as Mancur Olson, claim that consumer movements should fail to emerge due to the difficulty of providing public goods for large constituencies, consumer victories – like the passage of Dodd-Frank— have occurred in waves throughout the last century. In conducting this study, I thus sought to answer why it is that some consumer movements are able to push through consumer legislation while others fail. In order to answer this question, I conducted two cases studies, comparing Ralph Nader’s failed attempt to establish a Consumer Protection Agency in the 1970s with Elizabeth Warren’s successful push to create Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in 2010.

    54931 Federal Register Presidential Documents Vol. 60, No. 207 Thursday, October 26, 1995 Title 3Ð Proclamation 6843 of October 23, 1995 The President National Consumers Week, 1995 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Business and trade have always been central to the American experience. In the period since the Industrial Revolution, the extraordinary growth of our economy has created a marketplace that is the foundation of global commerce. Unparalleled natural and human resources have energized every part of our societyÐfrom the agricultural heartland that feeds an international community; to the textile and steel mills that began the machine age in America; to the scientific, computer, and information companies that are leading the way into the fast-paced world of the 21st century. Consumer protections such as fair pricing and product safety rules are more necessary than ever to ensure that all of us are able to fully and fairly participate in a free enterprise system that encourages competition, productivity, and innovation. These protections have evolved alongside the remarkable expansion of the world economy. In 1962, President John F. Kennedy clarified the importance of consumer protection in a Special Mes- sage to Congress that has become known as the Consumer Bill of Rights. This statement articulated each person's rights to safety, information, and choice, and the right to be heard in the process of resolving consumer problems. In 1975 President Gerald R. Ford added the right to consumer education. As the driving force behind the richest, most prosperous country in the world, the United States' free market is a model for others to emulate.
