(Oxford) Diploma : Learn Economics by Doing!

via Udemy

Overview

Learning Economics through Discussions

What you'll learn:
  • 2019/20/21 Current Real World Macro Economics Fundamentals
  • Through discussion with students from many countries you'll be exposed to many different economic ideas.
  • Bidenonomics
  • Macroeconomic discussions and workbooks

This is a rarity among Economics courses : your success depends not so much on the lectures themselves but what you do with them.

If you just watch lectures passively - then this course is not for you.

BUT:

If you watch lectures

- and do the homework

- and discuss follow up questions - and click the Resources and visit

- and regularly read Educational Announcement

- want interaction with the Instructor


Then this course is ideal for you!

If you do enrol you'll find that as soon as the 3 minute Introduction is finished you become engaged in discussions about current economic events in China, Japan, USA and elsewhere.

That, really, is how to enjoy learning: by being involved.

Here are the main topics covered:

CONTENTS: ECONOMICS THROUGH WORKBOOKS


  • Key vocabulary

  • Key economic indicators

  • Microeconomics

  • Macroeconomics concepts

  • Case Studies galore

  • Current economics

The emphasis throughout this course is very direct:


  • Please read this before the lecture

  • Here is the lecture

  • Check out the Resources

  • Now let's discuss what the lecture was about

  • Here is your homework - post in the Q/A

  • Discuss what others wrote

What I suggest:

1. You enrol (of course!)

2. Start immediately - don't hang around perhaps never starting!

3. Submit the work in lecture 1

4. Discuss the work with others

5. Repeat
