very clear
Very clear explanations along all the modules.
This one course exceeded my expectations!She has a very clear instruction style and the course material (ebook) also helps in developing a solid foundation of the fundamental topics.My only suggestion would be to throw in a few more quantitative exercises more frequently as part of the weekly assignments.With my interests in public policy, I look forward to doing more courses in the area of public / urban / land economics.

Prof. Allard was very clear, and gave many great resources that I have used in other courses.

Professor Gayle Allard does not go easy on you but otherwise... why would you bother to take the time to take the course?
Prof. Gayle Allard has a real gift to explain in a clear and appealing way complex ideas and policy issues.The only objection I would have regards the peer assignment grading which I found somehow lacking in realism and accuracy.

The lecturer was engaging, the material was interesting - I have a basic economics foundation and I found that my understanding of these basics improved, even while I feel much more empowered to have an opinion on policymaking in the world.
Dr. Allard does a fantastic job explaining basic economic concepts and principles so that a novice can better understand this one critical aspect of their world.

real world
My only "criticism" would be that most of the information on real world economics is up to about 2014 and I think this will soon need to refreshed.
All theory put across in the course is contexualised through real world applications and discussions.
Short quiz questions are incorporated into the videos to keep the students alert, and the articles provided as a mandatory reading keep the link with the real world.
