I really enjoyed Genius Economics this quarter. Though the current economic crisis is terrible, I am glad that I took this course at the same time. I liked actually understanding the news and being able to decode the facts from the hype. I regained interest for the news and the economic world and felt like I had a deep comprehension of the situation. I could watch the news with and educated eye and I didn't feel like what they were saying was going over my head.
I really liked this class. I really enjoyed just hanging out and talking about economics and the real issues that impact today's world rather than just in theory. AP Economics was fun and a really good class, but I found a new passion for the subject in these few weeks because it was relevant to today's world which was really exciting. I really changed my perspective and the concepts we had been learning came to life. I was not really sure before, but now I really feel like I will continue pursuing economics and might even major in it in college.
I like the laid back feel of this class. It feels more like a discussion rather than a class but I still get a lot out of it. I feel like I am learning a lot even though I am not taking notes and listening to lectures like a normal class setting. I would like to keep this relaxed energy alive in the next quarter. This class is a refreshing break from the monotony of lectures and constant assessments. I feel like this class focuses on learning for learning's sake rather than for a grade and that's what I like the most about it.
I talked to Jeanne and Katie... and some other people I can't really remember...
