MOTIVATION

I make courses on Udemy primarily because I enjoy the process of causing learning. Many of my courses are to improve lives. One of the Economics courses (Dogonomics) is to raise money for charity. (100% of revenue goes to the charity) Fundamentally this course is about helping you.

What is the course about?

This course is EIGHT Economics courses in ONE!

• Boris and Brexit – the UK PM’s pledges analysed
• Macroeconomics
• Microeconomics
• International Economics
• Case Studies
• Short-answer questions
• Government policy
• Short lectures….long lectures….

The EIGHT  courses take you through BEGINNER to ADVANCED!

Course One – Egg Timer Economics

‘Egg timer economics’ is a series of very short lectures that illustrate key areas of the advanced Economics course. (Each lecture is about 3.5 minutes, hence the title ‘Egg-timer Economics!) The course introduces key areas of micro and macroeconomics in a very straightforward way. There are also two sections on current affairs to encourage those attending the course to use news items to learn about Economics.

Each lecture (except Current Affairs) is accompanied by data response questions and a quiz.

Course Two – Corbynomics

Corbynomics.

Jeremy Corbyn leads the Labour Party in the UK. ‘Corbynomics’ has certainly captured the attention of the young.

BUT what IS ‘Corbynomics’?

This part examines the Labour Party’s Economic policies

Course Three – Trumponomics

Trumponomics.

An examination of the economic policies of President Trump and America.

Note: Read through the Announcements and Q/A for further discussions

Course Four – Revision Lectures

Revision.

There are three elements to this course:

• current news items
• rapid fire questions about the economics in the news
• revision lectures

Course Five – World Economics

We look at individual economies of the world – starting with the UK

Course Six

Back to basics but also a giant leap forward – go and look!

Topics include:

• aggregate demand
• aggregate supply
• confidence and AD
• economies of Australia, America, Sweden and the UK
• impact of Brexit
• international trade
• government economic policy
• savings/savings ratio
• Twitter as an investment tool

Course Seven

• The economic legacy of Theresa May, the UK Prime Minister who has just resigned (May 2019)
• The European Elections

Course Eight

The UK has a new Prime Minister. He has made a series of pledges about the economy.

These are analysed.

These EIGHT courses are spread over ONE HUNDRED +lectures – and these are being added to!

What terminology would you expect the audience to use to find your course?

The terminology is common business language – as found in newspapers. Therefore terms such as ‘fiscal policy’ and ‘monetary policy’ are used. Students  are encouraged to use the Q/A option to raise points and questions. These questions will very quickly be responded to.

What kind of materials are included?

85 short lectures and some documents that a) test whether the student had understood/remembered the key elements of the lecture and b) questions encouraging to do their own research. In that way the course continues beyond the video.

How long will the course take to complete?

Assuming the student has an hour a day, the course could easily be covered in twenty weeks. However, one of the purposes of the course is to enthuse the student and the questions asked may encourage the student to spend hours reading newspaper articles. There are also 17 workbooks that, if filled in, will easily take another 100 hours. (This is a very intensive course!)

How is the course structured?

The lectures follow the standard Advanced Economic syllabus. So, video, then an extension document. Then the next video. There are many, many revision questions.

Why take this course?

So many reasons!

1. To quickly gain an understanding of micro and macro economics

2. To be able to assess and evaluate America’s economic policies

3. To be able to assess and evaluate the UK’s ‘alternative’ economic policies

4. In the final extended section you can thoroughly test yourself and really see if you understand the economics behind current articles. These lectures are boosted by repeats of earlier lectures. Thus: R-E-V-I-S-I-O-N

NOTE: September 20th 2018

I have just added extra resources to the first section of the course. (The ‘egg-timer’ section) At the end of each lecture is a resource that has:

• a series of short answer questions testing your understanding of the lecture and encouraging further research
• a data response question that is specific to the topic
• an up to date newspaper article (20th September 2018) that is relevant to the topic and questions related to the article

This will further aid your understanding – for Beginners and also those who are Advanced!
