Let’s face it: keeping students engaged while teaching economics can be hard. Like, really hard.
Here at MobLab, we’ve created teaching solutions in the form of short games & experiments covering a wide range of concepts to help you and your students during the semester. With a few simple clicks, you can easily add games & experiments into your Cengage MindTap learning path.
MobLab has helped many instructors and their students increase class participation, student feedback, and retention of course material. The result is a dynamic, comprehensive, and fluid educational experience. Even better, MobLab is included with Cengage MindTap at no extra cost to you, your institution, or students. Wahoo! Below is a quick-start video tutorial on how to easily use MobLab in Cengage MindTap:
Don't just take our word for it - here is Prof. Christopher Roby’s experience teaching with MobLab within Cengage MindTap.
Any of the 25 MobLab experiments in Cengage MindTap can be played in a matter of minutes, which gives instructors ample time to analyze real-time results, and dive into student generated data for insightful discussion. For example, let’s take the concept of equilibrium. To students, it may seem like nothing more than the intersection of supply & demand at first glance. Students may ask, “Where does this come from” or “What does this mean in an actual market?” Our Competitive Market game can help answer these questions.
In this game, as demonstrated below, students become buyers and sellers in a market for oranges, where they submit bids and asks. We see in the game results that student transactions quickly converge to an equilibrium price and quantity. It’s the invisible hand at work!
The Cengage MindTap-MobLab partnership has brought games to thousand of students in live classrooms and in asynchronous learning formats since 2019. From small seminars with five students to lecture halls with hundreds of students — spark the joy of discovery and provide a fun and interactive element to your course!
Other popular games include:
Comparative Advantage Monopolies & Price Discrimination Prisoner’s Dilemma (Push & Pull)
