Abstract
Typically, undergraduate economics electives focus on content rather than methods, in spite of the fact that empirical work is fundamental to the practice of economics. This article describes an alternative approach to teaching content by using statistics labs that emphasize the empirical testing or applications of the theory. The result of this approach is that students develop an understanding of content in a way that more closely resembles the understanding of a research economist.
