作者描述了一门高级课程，旨在提高学生“像经济学家一样行事”的技能。虽然大多数系都提供高级课程，但这一门课程的独特之处在于，它是在学习的基础上开发的，而不是内容目标，作业旨在通过学生选择的项目来加强和进一步发展研究技能，它更接近地模拟了“像经济学家一样行事”的含义。L.汉森，2006年）。作者讨论了这门课程的发展及其独特之处，学生遵循的研究过程和产生的成果，以及与这种形式的高级研究课程相关的一些优点和缺点。
The author describes a senior-level course designed to promote student skills in "acting like economists." Although most departments offer senior-level courses, this one is unique in that it was developed on the basis of learning as opposed to content objectives, assignments are designed to reinforce and further develop research skills through a project of the student's choosing, and it more closely models what it means to "act like an economist" (W. L. Hansen 2006). The author discusses the development of this course and its unique features, the research process followed by students and the outcomes generated, and some of the advantages and disadvantages associated with this form of senior research course.
