In an era where the demand for innovative educational strategies is paramount, the effectiveness of teaching methods in fostering student learning has come under scrutiny. A recent study by Evgeniy Terentev, Irina Shcheglova, Denis Federiakin, Yuliya Koreshnikova, and Jamie Costley delves into the contrasting realms of active and passive teaching approaches within the context of economics and management education at a leading Russian university. By examining how these teaching methodologies influence student performance across various cognitive levels, the authors aim to shed light on the vital role of instructional practices in preparing students for success in an increasingly complex and competitive knowledge economy.

Student satisfaction is crucial for universities aiming to improve education and keep students engaged. Irina Shcheglova, Jamie Costley, Elena Gorbunova, and Christopher Lange delve into whether tasks that require higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) make students more satisfied with their academic experiences.
