Case Study: University of Agder saves time and improves economics learning with Pearson MyLab Economics

University of Agder saves time over 5 years with Pearson MyLab Economics

The University of Agder, with a large cohort of approximately 400 students in its Introductory Economics course, required a digital solution to manage assignments and provide self-study resources for its students. Associate Professor Kjetil Andersson sought a textbook with integrated digital resources from vendor Pearson to address this challenge, ultimately selecting the MyLab Economics platform.

Pearson's solution, MyLab Economics, was implemented to handle mandatory assignments and group session tasks automatically, saving the educator significant time. The platform provided a bank of questions that functioned with little assistance and allowed students to test their understanding and gain exam practice. The measurable impact for the instructor was a major time saving, which was cited as the primary reason for using Pearson's tool.
