Abstract

The ongoing digital transformation of higher education has intensified the demand for accessible, and adaptable teaching tools, particularly in economics. This paper presents Learn Economics (learneconomics.euba.sk), an interactive open educational platform developed to support teaching and learning the principles of microeconomics and macroeconomics in the Slovak language. The platform integrates short instructional videos, interactive graphs, case studies, self-assessment tests, and complementary reference materials in order to foster independent learning, and enhance student motivation. Empirical insights are drawn from questionnaire-based feedback collected from university students, complemented by descriptive usage analytics of the platform. In addition, the platform is positioned within a comparative overview of selected international digital resources used in economics education. The findings indicate that multimedia-based platforms can effectively complement traditional approach and provide a flexible framework for online and hybrid education in economics.
