| Abstract
| - An animated instructional module is described for illustrating key production economics concepts. The module uses three-dimensional production surfaces and two-dimensional contour maps. Two graphics programs are used together to construct diagrams that neither program could produce alone. Module sequences are based on the “classical” two-factor, one-output model, using a production function consistent with textbook diagrams. Although primarily for upper-division undergraduate or beginning graduate production economics courses, the instructional module provides a useful instructional supplement for advanced students. A free disk copy of the module for use on a personal computer is available from the author.
