A Novel Undergraduate Environmental Economics Class
By clicking here, you can download all of the lecture notes, filmed videos, notes, homeworks and readings for my fall 2013 Undergraduate Environmental Economics class at UCLA. Roughly 116 students will receive a grade. That's a big class and I didn't have a graduate Teaching Assistant to help me. One receives no extra "credit" for teaching such a big class. Instead, there are more papers to grade, and more administrative emails to read. The only glory of teaching such a big class is that the law of large numbers guarantees that I can identify some students who really want to excel and understand why the subject matter is exciting. There were many seniors in the class this quarter who appear to be more focused on their job search than on the core material that I find so interesting.
