Using Experiential Learning Techniques

Kim Hawtrey

The Journal of Economic Education, 2007, vol. 38, issue 2, 143-152

Abstract: The author advocates the application of experiential learning in economics courses at the tertiary level. The author evaluates a range of learning methods, both passive and active, in a student survey that provides data on under-graduate attitudes to various class activities. The results indicate a clear student preference for learning activities in economics that can be described as experiential. Analysis of reported student preferences also detects differences according to gender and day or evening class attendance.
