A list of objectives, you know with the whole Bloom's taxonomy verb plus concept
Just like a real course from an accredited college/university would provide (possibly), I would like to have a list of objectives. The questions at the end are a nice way to test myself, but I like to create my own tests to check on my learning process - can I compare/contrast, explain, list, blah, blah, blah. Thanks!

Naming of Units
There's two names associated with downloaded files. It is the "Description Title" rather than the File Name that cell phones use to order their listings.
PLEASE
put numbers on the "Description Title" (not the file name) so that we can hear them in the order Alex intended.1 vote -

for the webmaster:
Are you aware that cell phones store files in alphabetical order? I believe Alex intended the files be in order given. That order is lots. Please please please put numbers on the left of the file name.

who is behind this site? Much of economics falls short of being a science and more closely resembles religion. Who are you?

Translations
Translating the lectures or adding subtitles to them would help non-English speakers learn about economics. I am thinking of older persons in France, which often have never been exposed to sound economic thinking.

Adding a built-in Subtitles in English directly within the video, so if we download the video we can read the subtitles directly.
Adding a MBA Courses to the bunch of the MR University will be more than GREAT IDEA. Hence, folks can collect everything under one roof.

Can you make a program for volunteers to translate your videos?
Translation into different languages will be nice.
1 voteWe have a way to do this already! If you go to mruniversity.com and look at any video page, you should see a “translate” button under the video.
Clicking on it will take you to a tool that allows you to add subtitles. We greatly appreciate any additions we get!
For example, here’s the link for the first video in our Micro course. http://www.amara.org/en/videos/AfeywxXg5Wel/info/introduction-to-economics/

1 voteHi Bill,
Thanks for the comment – getting the International Finance exam up is on our list. We’re a bit behind I know. We are a very small team.I’m always curious to learn more about what folks are doing with our materials – would you mind sharing with me what you do with our certificate?
I’ll post a note here when the exam is up. Should be within the next few months.
Thanks.

Compress Apple Podcast Videos
Hi Guys,
You´re doing such a great Job, congratulations! I watched all videos from Microeconomics course and Daily Economics.
I had a hard time downloading the videos from Apples Podcast and play them on my iPad, because they are really big. A 3 minute video can be 700 MB size, which is huge, consuming lot of storage on the device, and making it imposible to streaming if you don't have a really fast internet connection.
It would be great if you can compress them.
2 votesThanks for the suggestion. We do compress them but we’ll see what we can do to compress them further.
