Professor Overlan is highly knowledgeable and passionate about econ. His lectures are highly entertaining and I love the anecdotes shared along the way to increase learning and information retention. SPECTACULAR PROFESSOR!ECN1100 2023-10-24 08:49:58 +0000 UTC
I loved how Prof. Overlan recorded a short lecture (25-55 min) for each chapter that really cut to the key information that he wants you to learn. Weekly discussions make sure you're really understanding the concepts & weekly quizzes are open book. I watched his lectures & then skimmed the chapters & felt like I learned well that way.ECN1100 2021-11-22 21:44:58 +0000 UTC
Had professor Overlan for intro to microeconomics. His lectures were always incredibly interesting and the way he spoke helped me retain a lot of information. Pace of the class was good. My only complaint is using Pearson for the textbook.ECN1100 2021-10-08 23:21:17 +0000 UTC
