Quiz and test questions require that you truly understand the content. Frequently the wording is different from the the text to make sure you understand.

During this course I found that the information provided was very different than the information on the tests. The review exams did not help with the tests at all.

I learned a lot about economics. Unfortunately I didn't do so well on the final as I wanted an "A" in this course. I get really anxious during test especially scheduling them around my busy work schedule.

A very well designed course, and gives a very good picture of the subject matter by bringing in real world examples that students can relate too.

It is a good overview of macroeconomics, but it is a tough course. The book I believe needs to be updated but other than that I enjoyed the course.

Fair and level treatment of Macroeconomics. Very similar to the AP course in terms of topic depth, a bit more than high school and a bit less than a full semester length lecture in person.

It can be very dry, but it's a relatively easy and informative class on the economy as a whole. Good for an elective.

This is a hard course to do well in 30 days. I was stressed and cried like everyday and I am normally a superb students. If you think you have what it takes, think again and then go for it. Really it was to learn the material, I just wish there were video lessons or something instead of the slide show. It's challenging material and not easy to do alone.

I think this course was more difficult than I expected. It was challenging for me because I learn better when someone actually explains things to me. It is difficult to learn by just reading a chapter then taking the test.

I didn't like how long the course was and how most of the information from the videos didn't really help me in the exams.

Extremely long and a lot of material.

The book recommended was outdated compared to the coursework and quiz.

First course I have taken. A good hint is to take notes as you go along and review everyday to keep pace.

Interesting course. Very informative.

excellent course! it was fun and easy

I thought the class was pretty dry. You just has to read the book and then take a quiz.

A good generic economics course. Easy, not intellectually challenging. The best help I can give other students is this: Chapters 1-5 and 18-19 of the Macroeconomics textbook are identical to chapters 1-5 and 23-24 in the Microeconomics book. A big time saver if you know that.

Very helpful when you have a busy schedule and have to fit in course work whenever is convenient. There are no due dates, therefore you get it done at whatever pace is comfortable for you, and no points are taken off.

The slides were not always in line with the chapters. It makes it difficult to fully understand the topic. I would have preferred that the slides reaffirmed the chapter. At times the topic that was covered on the slides were not covered until 2-3 chapters after.

Study guide is very helpful. Also, would consider using tutoring if I did it again.

This course was great! The course modules were easy to navigate. The chapter reviews were very comprehensive and the practice exercises were very helpful with studying for the exams.

It was what I needed

some questions have problem to show some symbol like (-) and students should guess by themselves. Also I found some similar answer choices.

I took this course as a senior with it being a sophomore level class i found it extremely easy and didnt have to waste a ton of money at my university to take it.

Presentations are consice and clear. Practise tests helped and so did Graded Exams.

very hard classes without a book

A

Course contents are substantial and so it covers macroeconomics very well.

It has a good setup that makes it easy to follow and understand the assignments, However, some of the testing material isn't even covered in the powerpoints so I had to do more reading with the book. Definitely suggest people to get the book.

It was fine.

I just wish there were more study materials included on the website with the chapter. Also, quizzes weren't similar to the exam for each chapter.

I thought the course was very good. I did not see the online lectures. Instead, I just used the text book. I was an economics major in college, so I had some background on the material.

great class and allowed me to go at my own pace

I really like it.

Can provide more lesson and info on the slide, so that there are less dependent on the textbook, this is what we called online study.

Great easy to follow

Great pace

Each section had video which when combined with the reading made learning a great experience.

easy to understand what i needed to get done and how.

I liked that I could access the course 24/7 and work at my own pace.

I liked the review exercises and practice exercises because they helped me retain information. The in-lesson review sections were helpful as well.

I liked the short chapters in the book because it helped in covering a large amount of information by breaking it up into pieces.

I liked the two practice quizzes, the summary.

I liked that it was a short duration course

I love working at my own pace, when I want and as short or as long as I can.

I loved that the course had real-life questions. With the textbook it made it easy to study and apply the methods to real-life problems. With alot of the questions since they could get a bit boring I would replace them with things I really liked ie fashion etc. This helped me to learn and apply the methods.

I really like that I could work at my own pace. I did not have to oblige to a certain schedule that would place stress on the other things going on in my life.

I really liked the book.

I think straighter line is great. It thoroughly covered each topic with a reasonable amount of questions. I like the course by course format. It's very doable. It's very nice that you can have access to a tutor. Overall very time and cost efficient. I will be back for more courses in the future. Thank you for a very good experience.

I liked that it was self paced

I'm interested in economics principally for the practical applications--so the chapters on international trade, public and private debt, cost-push and demand-pull inflation, unemployment, etc. were particularly interesting. The (often funny) musings of economists in the Last Word sections also served to make the course more applicable to real-world situations.

Independent study

It was easy to navigate, and it was hard in the beginning to get used to.

I liked that the course allowed me to go at my own pace and advance with the time that I had available.

-Self Paced
-Ability to do it from own home.
-Cheaper then then other alternatives

sooooooo glad I never have to take another Economics class...this stuff is very tough.

I liked that you can complete the course on your own time and convenience.

The 10 question practice quiz and chapter quizes in the study guide were most helpful, as they forced me to go back and review the chapters and looking for the answers, I was able to understand the topic more. This helped w/ the end of chapter exams.

The amount of time given for a test was challenging but not stressful.

I liked that you could learn at your own pace.

The combination of online lessons and text readings worked well together.

The course was very detailed and I am walking away with quite a bit of knowledge concerning macro.

I liked the ability to skim the practice exams to see if I knew or recognized the material.

THe little games, games just give me a better understanding

The midterm and final were not overly difficult.
Joseph was an invaluable help.

The review presentations were very helpful.

I liked the Chapter by chapter exams

The textbook usually presented material in a consistent, logical way, and the textbook study guide was helpful in working through concepts.

To my surprise, I actually enjoyed a subject I had previously had little interest in. The course material was challenging, but with few exceptions, doable. Those few exception were for the most part simply due to my mathematical shortcomings, more than the material itself. Even those, however, with more review of the study material and refiguring my missed answers after the test, I was able to understand. The material built on itself, and I was able to both grasp more and score higher on the exams as the course went along. Overall, a much more enjoyable experience than I had expected and everyone has been very helpful.

Very good presentations

Very informative! I learned a lot of things but also remembered a lot too. I will be taking more courses. the key is to study the required book way before you plan to take the course. That way if you need something you know where to find it. I Love SL. Now lets just hope my school accepts your courses.
