- Decisions, externalities and public economy in a location context Juan Miguel Benito Ostolaza Educación externalities Microeconomics experimental economics In this paper, we propose a learning application of the theory of market failure as part of a degree in Economics. In particular, we propose a classroom experiment to understand the concept of positive externality in the decision making of individuals. With this experiment, students participate directly in a game that allows them to see how externalities can appear in other situations. We are moving away from the typical examples over the well-being of a consumer, or the production possibilities of a firm affected by the actions of another agent in the economy. With even just a slight effect from our classroom experience, we can say it is extremely motivating for students, and also, it opens a new methodological framework in which student participation in learning becomes crucial. 2009 artículo científico 1989-3477 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=349532299014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3495 @tic. revista d'innovació educativa application/pdf Universitat de València @tic. revista d'innovació educativa (España) Num.3
