Abstract

This study uses a quasi-experimental, non-equivalent group design to analyze the outcomes in terms of students’ learning and satisfaction of the redesign of a first-year, principles of microeconomics course from a lecture-based course using active learning techniques in 2013 to a partial flipped classroom in 2014 and a full flipped classroom in 2015.
