NEW CASE STUDIES ADDED 28TH APRIL 2023: 20 mini Case Studies

A NEW SECTION FOR BEGINNERS IN ECONOMICS WAS ADDED IN JUNE 2023


The FOURTEEN courses take you through BEGINNER to ADVANCED!

Course One - Business Economics English

This is a seven day Business Economics English course for those students whose first language is not nEnglish. If you are fluent in English then skip this course.

Course Two - 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 Three - 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 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

These are analysed.

Courses Nine and Ten

A Before..and After course which measures your progress.

Course Eleven

The Economic impact of COVID-19 (and a workbook)

Course Twelve

The Economy of the USA

Current as at April 2020 we look at the USA and COVID…and the impact. But we also look at whether Americans are happy with their economy.

Course Thirteen

The Nigerian Economy

We consider the macro areas of the Nigerian Economy

Course Fourteen

April Fools economics

Created specifically for April 1st we look at Economic hoaxes.

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. Remember too that there is an ‘Economics English’ course included.

What kind of materials are included?

600+ 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 2 hours a day , the course could easily be covered in ten 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 24 workbooks that, if filled in, will easily take another 120 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 microeconomics and macroeconomics

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

Who Should Attend!

  • Students who will participate - and learn - in discussions
  • Anyone wanting to progress from Beginner to Advanced in Economics
  • Those who learn through a variety of styles
  • All those beginning Economics and want bite-sized chunks
  • Someone who wants to master the basics in order to understand the complex
  • Those who like REVISION LESSONS, case studies and questions
  • Everyone who likes regular updates to their knowledge through discussion
