  4. series of economics courses - 9 month to 12 month curriculum.

    Please consider a series of economics courses - 9 month to 12 month curriculum. online/virtual exam after each course.. and a virtual marks card.... A sequential 6 to 9 courses on economics like a typical virtual course offered by many commercial platforms.
    It would be a great help for Master level learners who can not afford to go to top universities.
    Off curse it would be non-degree and non-credit curriculum purely for learning economics!

  6. PPT

    Is there any PPT files made from your's videos (in fact, that are use in videos)? If not, maybe it's not a bad idea to make it. The PPT files shoud be editable, of course, for better use in any language.

  8. Like Khan Academy, you should add in a points system to identify top viewers/users

    Add gamification to this website! Really, it's like the icing on the cake. Give points for completing a video and/or answering practice questions correctly. I'm not sure how you would code this ... but think about it!

    See Khan Academy for an example of this.

  9. Video on the Green New Deal Proposal

    As we see coming from Congress as well as candidates, the "Green New Deal" proposal is a hot topic, including in my own Economics course. Could you guys possibly make a video about it?

    If you have earned a certificate, you should be able to print it as follows:

    1) Login to mruniversity.com
    2) You should see your profile page – if not, click “my profile” on the top navigation bar
    3) On the right you should see certificates you’ve earned – under them you should see “print certificate”.
    4) That will bring up a page formatted for printing. On many print screens you’ll see something like “print backgrounds” and “print header and footers” options. Click print background “on”. Leave headers and footers “off”.

  14. MRUniversity should create an app.

    MRUniversity should create an app similar to Udemy so people can easily do economics on their phones and tablets. I would strongly prefer if there was an MRUnisveristy app that just linked the videos so I can watch it on my phone without the need of an internet browser.

  15. Add a course on public choice economics

    Please add a course on public choice economics. There's an excellent list of MRU courses for learning to think like an economist. But strongly believe another function of these courses could/should be to make us better, more knowledgeable citizens regarding public policy issues. And that means we need a course in public choice economics — "politics without the romance" — i.e., what economic analysis can tell us about the political decision-making process. That way we'll be better able to determine whether free-market or government-driven solutions would likely work better for addressing particular issues. And we'll each have a better "BS…

  16. Contemporary economists

    Maybe some videos about the most influential contemporary economists and their ideas, would be an interesting addition. And the main schools of thoughts of our times and how are they, in practice, influence the governance and the markets. Best Regards, Alexandra Popa

  17. Bring back the Econ Ink stickers! I am almost out and need to order more. How can we make this happen?

    I give these stickers as gifts to my AP students at the end of the year, so my stash is running low! I can't find anything I like as much, so please bring them back or release the art so we can print our own!

  18. Josh Angrist Econometrics Videos

    The videos that are up are great. But the wait in between episodes is frustrating and makes it harder to use the existing ones as a teaching resource (this is optional extra study for my high school students). Is there a timeline for the remaining videos?

  19. Continuous Play Option.

    It would be awesome to be able to queue up a series of videos. I'm listening to/watching the Development Economics series, and many of the videos are only a few minutes long. I like to listen while I paint my house, and I keep having to stop and run back to the computer to play the next video. It would be nice to be able to select several to play in a row. I could watch/listen to a whole section in one go.

    Hi Katie,
    Thanks for the suggestion. There are two ways to do this:

    1) YouTube playlists
    If you use a YouTube playlist like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Meo0s54s1sw&list=PL-uRhZ_p-BM4SmRr1p6WZnfym2zP2O0LH&index=2
    it will continuously play. We have playlists setup for some of the courses and are in process of setting up all of them.
    2) iTunes
    We are posting videos to iTunes, which will allow you to do continuous play. We also have just the audio podcast, which combines a whole section’s videos into one podcast. We’re rolling on both the video and audio podcasts continually. You should see more up soon – let me know if you have a particular course you want first.

    Hopefully this helps!

    Roman

  20. Is there a recommended course order?

    For someone who has little background in economics, is there a recommended course order? The website appears to list the courses in an arbitrary order. Udacity categorizes courses as Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Is there a similar ordering for MRU courses?

    Hello,
    That’s a good question. In general we try to make all of our videos accessible to a beginner. The Everyday content is definitely the most introductory in nature – we’re working on more introductory level content.

    However, that shouldn’t discourage you from checking out the other courses such as Development Economics or Great Economists. Those are both very accessible as well.

    Thanks for your question.
