Abstract | Explores whether class size affects achievement in introductory college economics, using the 1988-89 Test of Understanding in College Economics database (TUCE III). Results indicate that neither class size nor certain controlled class characteristics affect student achievement. Results are markedly robust, when using SAT scores to control for ability and when TUCE test results count toward final grades. (34 references) (MLH) |
