Abstract

This research work presents the students’ feedback on quiz-based post-lecture activities with undergraduate students of a degree in Management of Business and Technology. Following each Microeconomics and Macroeconomics lecture, a quiz was uploaded in the Learning Management System (LMS) and students were given one week to answer the quiz. Regarding methodology, this study was done by a survey, including quantitative and open-ended questions. The results of our research study show that business students in their first year of studies have a largely favorable view of using quizzes with multiple-response questions as follow-up activities after lectures in their Microeconomics and Macroeconomics classes. Active learning resulted as the most appreciated aspect of the quiz activity. Based on students’ feedback, instructors could calibrate the activity to be less time consuming. Finally, when asked to nominate preferred learning tools to reinforce topics taught in class, quiz-based activities emerged as the most widely appreciated option among students, regardless of the platform used to deliver them.
