Abstract:

This article appeared in ECCHO 26, Spring 2001 and ECCHO 27, Autumn 2001. In this interview Patrick Conway, Professor of Economics at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, explains how he has increasingly used activity learning in his undergraduate and post-graduate economics courses. He discusses the issues raised by using cases in the undergraduate curriculum, the reaction of students to innovative teaching, fitting cases within the pedagogical structure, nesting activity learning techniques within cases and key steps and golden rules for the uninitiated.
