[Athen] methods for drawing econ diagrams

[Shelley Haven]

You might be familiar with the FX series of apps for math and science expression from Efofex.com <http://efofex.com/> — FX Equation, FX Draw, etc.  They also offer FX Stat for creating statistical graphs and charts:
https://efofex.com/fxstat.php <https://efofex.com/fxstat.php>

Their FX Draw product also includes FX Graph, FX Stat, and FX Equation, all of which integrate well with Microsoft Word.  I think this combination of four apps might fit your student’s needs.  Also, students with qualifying disabilities can obtain free licenses to FX software through the EmPower Foundation if the request is made by the school:

Hope this helps,
- Shelley
