To actually review this semester is actually a difficult task, but here it goes.
When the semester began I had tribulations about economics because I had not taken Econ for some time. However, I was ecstatic when the class was not centered around formulas and Keynesians crosses. That said I think I have learned something exceedingly more valuable than economic jargon. Economics 349 has reminded me how much I actually like economics not despise it.
I think the class was built in such a manner to give the professor valuable lessons in what not to do for future students. In other words, we are GUINEA PIGS ! but I didn’t mind.
The Junior Achievement. If you want to read more on what I think about JA, simply look further down. But here is the condensed version. I Loved It! At first I was not totally sold on the assignment but after going into a high school class and then teaching the class; I realized the assignment was giving me something that I could NEVER attain through a lecture, book, or college class- valuable first hand experience!!!! On a side note. I think next time you should make the students who could not participate in JA do more work than teach one class. Even if it took them two or even three weeks to prep for one class 6 - 3= 3 the other students had three additional weeks of prep, drive time, etc….
The Blogs. Like the Junior Achievement assignment, I was extremely hesitant and jaded about blogging. However, I have learned to like it! I think its fun and playful. In addition, it’s a useful teaching tool because it makes you think about the assignment and what worked and what did not. And to those who complained- get over it!! I can think of much worse things to do!!! Professor give people an option, if you don’t want to blog then take a quiz.
The lesson plans. For me, this was the most difficult task of the class. This assignment actually taught me a great deal about my self. I learned that I need to convey my ideas and thoughts in such a way that it is a simple task to understand. I also discovered that I place too much trust in other people- Lesson plan #3. Overall, this was a hard yet tremendously useful learning tool.
Lastly, the professor. It is just my personal opinion but I feel like I was….. an irritation? I am a naturally inquisitive person and no matter what the class I have lots of questions and I think that annoyed you –Sometimes. I also got the feeling that you just wanted to yell “WHAT”!! that is the bets way to put it? However, I think you are a awesome teacher who excels at what you do. I would definitely recommend you to any student because I loved the way your class was put together. I wont do it in person, but I just want to thank you for the amazing experience!!!!! This class is in my top 3!!
