The purpose of this project was to produce a short educational video, targeted at middle school and high school students, illustrating the critical role transportation plays in our modern economy. This report documents the production of a 6.5-minute video that provides students with a glimpse of how transportation has become an integral part of the modern economy. The video, titled The Transportation Economy: Just in Time, is available in both streaming and downloadable formats to public and private schools online (http://transportationeconomy.tamu.edu/). The site includes a full transcript of the production and a downloadable PowerPoint® presentation. These materials are for use as supplemental material for middle school and high school economics and civics classes.
