This project aims to fully convert a required UG course (ECON 3024: Managerial Macroeconomics) to an active learning pedagogy, where students will be able to transition from being passive “consumers” of economics knowledge, but to becoming active “producers” of knowledge.
Under the new learning pedagogy, the students will be working in group to apply macroeconomic concepts and theories in the investigation of a real-world macroeconomic phenomenon of their interest.
To facilitate the students’ investigation, we will create a Repository of Data Sets & Research Materials (a resource repository in short) that hosts data sets and research materials that are most relevant for the students’ interest.
