Abstract

The purpose of this study is to show that a Collaborative Learning Lab (CLL) component can be accommodated in a standard three-credit introductory microeconomics class without significantly reducing the course content. It also shows that adding an in-class CLL can be an effective alternative method of teaching microeconomics. The data provides convincing information that incorporating CLL into the class improves student learning.
