Using research and models from behavioral economics evaluate the syllabus for a DePauw course of your choosing and re-design it to improve achievement of learning objectives. Then use behavioral economics to devise additional policies specific to your chosen course aimed at positively influencing students’ learning choices. You will want to include quotes or screenshots from the original syllabus and formulate specific wording or structure suggestions for the revised version. Consider creating a complete version of the new syllabus and attaching it as an appendix to your paper. Peer-reviewed sources that apply behavioral economics to syllabus design may be in short supply. Therefore, behavioral economics articles that focus on the subfield itself3 or that use behavioral economics to address a specific question may well form the bulk of your literature review. Just and Wansink provide one useful application of behavioral economics in their article, “Smarter Lunchrooms: Using Behavioral Economics to Improve Meal Selection4 .” They argue that using tools from behavioral economics can suggest solutions for the public school lunch program that “can achieve nutritional goals while having a minimal impact on the bottom line.”
