An Organonic and Modern Problems Approach for Teaching Agricultural Economics Principles
1988
Wetzstein, Michael E.
Instructors in principles courses should consider placing greater emphasis on modern problems and organonic teaching techniques to increase students' proficiency in agricultural economics. These techniques will stimulate student imaginations, modify learning styles toward collaborative and independent learners, and stimulate interest in the subject matter. Unfortunately, recent developments in teaching principles are aphoristic techniques, including programmed learning, television, and computer‐aided instruction. These aphoristic techniques stifle students' imaginations, contribute to a dependent learning style, and fail to stimulate interest in the subject matter. The degree of instructors' adoption of modern problems and organonic techniques depend on their teaching abilities, class size, types of students, and how their courses blend into the curriculum.
