Digital Age Multitasking: Help or Hinderance?
In today's hyper-connected world, juggling emails, messages, and multiple open tabs is the norm. This constant multitasking in the digital age is often seen as a necessary skill for productivity. But is it a help or a hindrance to our focus and efficiency?
While it may feel like we're accomplishing more, neuroscience offers a clear answer. Our brains aren't built to focus on multiple complex tasks at once. Instead, we engage in rapid "task-switching," where our attention jumps from one thing to another. This process is mentally taxing and comes at a significant cost.
Studies consistently show that multitasking in…

What is Information Design like at MRU??
Hi,
I'm currently in grade 12 and looking at universities to go to and the info design program has really caught my eye. I've seen a few posts around here but not enough to answer my questions. I was hoping some alumni and current students could help me out!

Money, investment, savings: the oil for economic wheels
Direct trade is good for small, introductory examples, but real economies run on more finely grained money. Trace how money is earned, spent, saved, invested, spent some more, and grows in the process.
Outstanding lectures so far, thank you. Please continue.
The basics of Western economics are not taught, at least not often, to students in (still Communist) China and India, and immigrants are sometimes baffled by market manipulations, loans, leases, and so forth. Even technical young people, in computer-related industries and IT, often lack the backgrounds in basic Econ to, e.g., understand their mortgages, margin accounts at brokerages, and…

I am able to see the English subtitles. Click the CC icon on the YouTube player. If that doesn’t work, email us at support@mruniversity.com with the link.
We are looking for help translating all of our videos – click the translate button below our videos to create new subtitles.
While economics is universal, English is not! We’d love to teach more folks.

Misleading wording in one quiz question
Hi, I just took the quiz following the video "A price is a signal wrapped up in an incentive." The last phrase in the answer to question 6 describes the equilibrium price as "desired by no one." What is meant here is "the equilibrium price is not the desire of any one person," but the way it's written can just as easily be interpreted as "the equilibrium price is quite disliked by everyone." It's ambiguous that way. One way to clear up the ambiguity is just to change it to "…desired by no one person." Indeed, that wording appears in…

Improving long term learning and comprehension of material
The videos and questions are engaging, but without frequent and spaced reinforcement of the concepts and terminology, the ideas will not embed in learners long term memory. students take a multiple choice question and pass but do they really understand the concepts. This is the biggest failure of MOOCs. I recommend including on the website some space repetitive questioning of the material to help push the ideas from short term memory to long term memory. There is a lot to earn from language learning and flashcard websites and apps like Anki, Duolingo and Memrise. You can even develop on Memrise…
1 voteThank you Bryon! No surprise that such a smart comment comes from a fellow Hokie!
I agree that there is much to be done to provide practice materials to reinforce concepts. That’s definitely on our radar to improve.
I’ll check out those apps you mentioned. I appreciate the feedback – feel free to email me directly at roman at mruniversity dot com.
