Apart from the revised language level, this text, aimed at first
year university and university of technology students, contains
illustrations and graphs, used to explain certain fundamental
concepts. This allows for extremely accessible reading and
assimilation of knowledge. At the end of each chapter, key terms
are listed to remind the reader of the main concepts covered in the
preceding pages. In addition, multiple choice questions,
discussions and review questions at the end of each chapter allow
for the student's own self-assessment.
Universities worldwide are facing an unpresedented increase in
enrolment, however, with the increase in numbers, teachers,
lecturers and students are finding it more difficult to interact -
with one another and with the content. The type of student is also
changing dramatically. Digital natives are using technology in
almost every sphere of their lives - why then not also in their
education? Can technology not assist the teacher to foster good
interaction with students? This research had been done in an
attempt to address the challenges of improving the learning
experiences of Economics first-year students in ever-increasing
class sizes, by facilitating interaction via the use of e-
learning. This book is useful for every educator who has struggled
with large enrolment numbers and who would like to include
principles of good pedagogy in their classrooms - amongst others
interaction, discussion, application of theoretical knowledge -
whilst keeping the net-generaion happy.
