Abstract

This article explores teaching reform in Macroeconomics and Microeconomics courses within the context of the new business discipline, emphasizing the need for blended teaching methods in international undergraduate education. Traditional teaching approaches are evolving to meet the demands of the digital economy, incorporating both online and offline learning strategies. The study examines how blended teaching enhances student engagement and learning outcomes, aligns with international education standards, and integrates modern business practices. Key aspects include the shift towards a student-centered approach, the use of innovative assessment methods, and the incorporation of real-world business scenarios.
