In higher education, there is an increasing trend from teacher-centred to student-centred learning environments, wherein active learning experiences can play a decisive role. This paper assesses how students perceive the use of active learning techniques within the lecture framework, traditionally accepting students as passive listeners. To that end, a survey was distributed in a single class at mid-semester in order to evaluate and help refine the active learning approach conducted in an economics course. Results show that students have an overall positive response towards active learning, helping them to focus, engage and learn, and especially valuing the lectures as a whole as interactive and a valuable learning experience. Students’ appraisal regarding the usefulness of key implementation rules like the what, when, who technique on slide-written instructions as well as the variety of active learning activities tested has also revealed that the designing and testing of active learning events need improvement.
