traded for hundreds of years, initially swapping goods and services or
bartering. This progressed to money, which in turn advanced to credit cards and
direct deposits. Humans can now transact from their homes via the web. In the

e-commerce. Each person on your team will become an expert on some aspect of
e-commerce. You will come together at the end to share and get a better
understanding of e-commerce. It is here the fun begins where you will discuss
and then create and manipulate data using excel to track e-commerce and it's effects on citizenship.
