Abstract. The method is “the way to follow in the joint work of educator and students in order to achieve the goals of education, i.e. education and information of students”, believes the reputed teacher Constantin Cucos (1998). Modern strategies of teaching-learning-evaluation put great emphasis on interactivity. This gives students the opportunity to demonstrate what they know as a set of understandings, skills and abilities (competencies). This paper tries to compare the teaching – learning – assessment traditional methods with the modern methodology in Economics learning. This paper will highlight the advantages and disadvantages of conventional and modern methods used in the study of Economics based on their application on various topics. I’ll try to find an answer to the question: Are the modern methods complementary to traditional ones?
