Achieving Active Learning and Deep Learning with Media Using the Example of Teaching Finance
Zureck, Alexander
Problems of Education in the 21st Century, v79 n3 p485-504 2021
The range of study programs in finance and the ways how to study due to place, time, and focus has increased in recent years. Students can choose what and how they want to learn. If someone finds an appropriate program he must decide to study face-to-face, online, or in a hybrid format. Finance is often a duty in business administration or related study programs. For many students in those classes the financial topics are bleak. This leads to a passive consumption of contents and ends often in dropping out. The aim of this research was to discuss methods to activate and keep learners motivated by using well selected media in teaching. To identify which media is used in teaching, a literature review was done. Teaching annual reports and other official reports available in English and/or German from several international educational institutions are read, compared, and analyzed. Additionally, secondary academic literature is checked for further examples. In a first step, therefore, different techniques to active students, such as collaboration or interaction, are discussed critically on a literature base. In a second step, based on the techniques, a selection matrix was obtained that supports educators to select the right medium to deal with a certain technique. Many examples were found that might assist educators in the practical use of the selection matrix.
