Our site has a tag education:
http://economics.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/educationhttps://economics.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/education
and another for education-economics:
http://economics.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/education-economicshttps://economics.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/education-economics
What is the communities view on the how these tags should be used:
- Tag use should be consistent. education is sometimes used to tag questions about those interested in learning economics (e.g. What prerequisite courses do I need in order to specialize in Mechanism/Market design theory?What prerequisite courses do I need in order to specialize in Mechanism/Market design theory?) But it is also sometimes used to take questions about the economics of education (Have there been attempts to measure the value of specific taught skills?Have there been attempts to measure the value of specific taught skills?).
- education-economics only seems to be used for the second kind of question, but is not used very often.
It seems like this needs some tidying up. Are there any suggestions about how to handle this?
