National Science Foundation Project
	"Developing and Implementing Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT)  Pedagogy in the Principles of Economics Course"

JiTT - Just in Time Teaching - combines the use of out-of-class web-based exercises with active-learning pedagogy. Between classes, students complete carefully constructed exercises and submit them electronically a few hours before class.  Instructors review students’ JiTT responses and use the responses to organize and modify the upcoming classroom session – hence the “just-in-time” label.  We've developed the resources on this site to help you find out more about JiTT and how you can implement JiTT techniques in your own classes. 

The National Science Foundation has supported our development of JiTT techniques in economics (DUE #00-88303) in addition to JiTT pedagogy in other disciplines (www.jitt.org).  For more information about our project or using JiTT pedagogy in economics courses, contact:
