Model Thinking Class Completed!
Friday, June 1, 2012
"If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail."
The Model Thinking course covered a variety of conceptual and mathematical models intended to increase citizens' contributions to the world through more rational decisions. By expanding the number of models I have at my disposal, I can apply the appropriate tool and understand it's limitations.
Through Coursera.org and from the University of Michigan, Scott E. Page delivered a 20 section online class about Model Thinking, complete with video lectures, quizzes, suggested readings and a final exam.
An engaging and eloquently delivered presentation of complex material in an easily digestible form. I'm grateful for Dr. Scott E. Page's enthusiasm and passion for sharing, in addition to the time and effort of him and his team. My appreciation for economics and related fields has drastically increased, having been exposed to such powerful and intriguing model applications.
