This book demonstrates alternatives to the lecture and chalkboard
approach that dominates the teaching of economics, providing a
range of innovative teaching techniques and examples aimed at
engaging undergraduates in the learning of economics. The editors
provide a brief history of the teaching of economics in higher
education, as well as a review of current undergraduate teaching
practices. Some of the field's leading educators then demonstrate
alternative practices in three main sections: 'Active and
Cooperative Learning', 'Writing, the Internet, and Discovery
Through Sampling', and 'Examples from the World Around Us'. The
topics in the twelve chapters of the book have been carefully
selected based on their high potential for adoption by other
instructors. Detailed, 'hands-on' examples are included within each
chapter, illustrating how suggested approaches can be used in
different courses and classroom situations at the undergraduate
level. Also included are lists of 'Dos' and 'Dont's' to guide
instructors through the successful implementation of activities.
This book will be of great practical value to teachers of economics
as well as administrators responsible for undergraduate
instruction.
