This class was
very interesting to me because it approached economics in an organizational
perspective. I was a little nervous initially to take this class because it is
an upper level economics class but the topic interested me more than the other
options. I never realized how there are legitimate economic theories regarding
interpersonal relationship and organizations in economics. All the information
I have learned in this class can be applied to real life economic situations
and I hope I am able to apply these materials that helped me throughout in the
course somewhere down the road. Transfer pricing and how all the factors in a
supply and demand curve can affect almost everything in the economy really
impressed me: market price, supply, demand, etc. The blog posts were very
helpful because it made sure that students were able to focus on what the
subject of the week was and apply, in their own personal opinion, a blog post
regarding the topic. This helped me because by putting my thoughts into words I
was able to get feedback from the professor to help clarify what I understand. The
one problem I had with the class was sometimes the excel homework was
difficult. Maybe a small part of lecture on Monday being allocated to how to do
the excel would be helpful; I was able to overcome this by meeting when the
professor when I needed to but for those who cannot do so, maybe a formula reference
sheet or something would be helpful. I also appreciated the way this class was
structured; it was a combination of offline and online involvement.
