Abstract
The author of this article presents a brief introduction to the use of current events news articles in an introductory microeconomics course for business students. Popular press articles are integrated with small-group peer instruction, and student understanding is assessed using student response system, or clicker, questions. Examples of lesson learning objectives are presented, along with a discussion of how news articles and clicker questions are combined to promote student interest and engagement. Sample clicker questions are also provided.
