Before
You project a lecture on monetary policy. Students memorize IS-LM, recite the Phillips curve. They know the theory but can't explain why two economists disagree.
With MEτiS
Your students interrogate a hawkish central banker, a dovish one, a finance minister, a union leader, and a CEO. Same data, five different recommendations. They have to figure out who's right — and why.
That difference is what makes the debrief.
A typical 2-hour session, step by step.
Read the context. Talk to the characters. Write a deliverable. The setting changes. The method stays.
Each character has their own personality, their own knowledge, and things they won’t volunteer.
Au Pain Doré — Artisan bakery in Toulouse, France. Léa, your pastry chef, is leaving in 3 months. How will you handle it?

Every feature is designed for pedagogy, not technology.
GDP, inflation, unemployment, debt, trade balance — coherent indicators based on real or plausible situations.
Keynesians, monetarists, institutionalists — each actor reasons from their theoretical framework. Students cross-reference analyses.
Austerity or stimulus? Rate hikes or employment support? Students experience the tension between theory and political constraints.
The central banker knows internal projections. The minister knows what the budget can't absorb. You have to ask the right questions.
Economic briefing, policy recommendation, scenario analysis — assessed on Bloom's taxonomy rubric.
Describe the economic situation. The AI generates the actors with their theoretical frameworks, the data, and the deliverables.

Inflation at 5%, sluggish growth. Students interrogate hawks, doves, ministers, and unions to formulate an argued recommendation.
Troika, Greek government, IMF, citizens — students relive the austerity vs sovereignty dilemma with the actual actors.
Economists for and against, politicians, entrepreneurs, unemployed — a debate structured by investigation, not opinion.
OPEC minister, Western leader, CEO, consumer — understanding stagflation through its actors.
My students finally understood why economists never agree. The simulation showed them it's not a bug — it's the heart of the discipline.
