Flipping the Classroom with Econlowdown.Org
Mendez-Carbajo, Diego; Malakar, Lucy C.
Journal of Economic Education, v51 n1 p95-102 2020
In this article, the authors describe two independent efforts at "flipping" introductory economics courses employing econlowodown.org resources from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. From an instructor's perspective, it is relatively simple to locate the high-quality free resources available online and assign them to students. Their alignment with national content standards in economics and prescribed State of Ohio learning outcomes are important adoption considerations under performance-based funding constraints. The authors document high rates of assignment completion, suggesting students found the resources easy to access and engaging. Overall, they found the online video podcasts and virtual lectures produced by the economic education specialists and instructional designers at the St. Louis Fed to be valuable instructional assets in different institutional settings and across disparate student populations.
