Abstract
- The article outlines and evaluates a new learning strategy implemented in the Faculty of Economics and Commerce at the University of Melbourne. The strategy is an internet-based assignment delivery and assessment system designed to (i) equip students to make the link between macro economic theory and important real-world issues, (ii) develop positive attitudes to the subject, (iii) develop deep approaches to learning, (iv) develop a facility for critical analysis and problem-solving, and (v) develop effective study habits. Using a multidimensional evaluation strategy, the indications are that the new approach has succeeded in its aims.
