E-learning in teaching of microeconomics

Distance learning is a very powerful and a cheap mean, but poorly used. Microeconomics, with its graphical representations and a strong need for the use of the advanced software is a fertile field for its implementation, in a several ways. Several authors offer a variety of the ways to use and implement the eLearning systems. We analyzed several cases in which distance learning offers even greater possibilities than the traditional ones, through the use of the illustrative graphical representations, thoroughly explained steps in modelling deductions and connecting the theory and practice through the use of the statistical and econometrical programmes and methods. There are many fields in which the lectures could be improved, while decreasing the teaching costs, and increasing the comprehension of the students.
