We are delighted to announce that Volume 4, Issue 2 of the Advances in Economics Education is now available in print and digitally via Elgaronline.
One of the biggest challenges currently facing university teachers is how we respond to the emergence of AI. Discussion has focused on the threat it poses to assessment integrity. But Mirna Ibrahim takes a more positive attitude, showing how Gen AI can be leveraged to teach Financial Statement Analysis. Her article contributes to the scholarship on technology-enhanced learning by demonstrating how GenAI can scaffold professional reasoning development while maintaining pedagogical rigor.
Graham Brownlow and Christopher Colvin’s article reflects on the value of economic history in undergraduate economics programs and explores how this has changed in recent years. They argue that a knowledge of the economic forces that shaped key historical episodes can be a powerful complement to the standard analytical skills that economics graduates develop. Despite this utility, however, economic history has been crowded out of most undergraduate programs in the UK. Brownlow and Colvin suggest one area in which it makes particular sense to reverse this trend. Many UK economists are based in business schools, which have a strong emphasis on managerial relevance over pure technical sophistication. Economic history aligns very well with this focus because it helps students to understand how business outcomes depend on the operation of economic forces within specific institutional contexts, and this helps them develop practical judgment.
This issue also contains articles on the factors that affect student persistence in the study of economics, and on alternative approaches to the teaching of both microeconomics and macroeconomics.
We hope that you enjoy this issue,
