  • Samantha Kerr
    I loved this lecture. It was very easy to follow along with and understand. Real-world examples helped me understand the concepts and theories presented. I enjoyed the Professor's open-ended questions to check for understanding and how he challenged the audience to think beyond the content presented to identify fallacies to the information using critical-thinking skills. As a visual learner, the use of the graphs and charts were extremely helpful to understand supply and demand changes and effects.
