Fantastic professor! New to NDSU as of fall 2013, but a great addition to the College of Business. He makes a true effort to make each student in a lecture hall of 250 understand the material. He even attempts to learn names and does a great job at it. Attendance isn't mandatory, but he gives test questions when attendance is low. Take his class!

EASY A as long as you attend class. Gives easy test questions to random class days when alot of students don't show up. His test are super similar to notes taken in class. As long as you take notes and somewhat pay attention in class you'll easily pass.

He was very good about keeping the class interesting! He never uses the textbook so if you didn't understand his notes, good luck. It took him about 2 weeks to cover like 7 slides. Notes weren't helpful when it came to the test (had to know concepts). Attendance isn't a must he complains about people not being there the first half hour of class.

This is my easiest class this semester. If you go to class and just listen and take note, you will get "A" for sure. I even did not have to spend much time after school to prepare for the exam. I just went to class everyday and look over note just a day before exam, and I have high "A" so far. Great professor too. You just need your book to do HW.

Seriously THE BEST PROFESSOR I have had on the NDSU campus so far!! He does a wonderful job explaining everything even if you don't exactly understand the concept. He does a great job of including and interacting with everyone in a class of 250 students. As long as you have good attendance, you will get a B. My advice: TAKE THIS CLASS FROM HIM!!!

A fair grader who makes class interesting. Make sure to get your hands on some old tests as they usually match up word for word. Hardly any homework outside of class. Very relatable and he uses beer and baseball cards for lots of his examples.

Englund is fantastic at teaching Micro Econ! He gets his students involved and excited to learn. He offers bonus points for class if you answer questions. The tests are based strictly off of his lectures and anything he talks about is fair game. The Aplia homework is just from the book. Nothing from the book is in his tests which is a huge plus!

Nice guy and interesting to listen to. Sometimes tries to be funny, rather than teach the material. Gives opportunities for extra credit in class if you take part in the lectures. Don't bother buying the book because the tests are only on the lecture material

Easy to understand, very good at clarifying topics. Give lots of bonus points if you participate in lecture. Tests are based solely off lecture notes, and not out of the book. The book is used only for the aplia online homework.

Tries to be fun with his lectures. Gives out extra credit for participating in class. Basically teaches right out of the book so don't worry if you miss class.

Englund is a good professor but Econ can be tricky sometimes. Does give extra credit but doesn't count for much. Tests are tough so be ready to study and work hard.

I took his class as a retake and I'm very glad I did. He was interesting to listen to and was open to helping those who needed it. There was an error with my final grade of the online homework, because of a last name change and previously taking the course, but he was very helpful with fixing the error. Overall, good experience.

He really engages the class in his lectures. Just go to his lectures and pay attention, and this class will be a piece of cake. He is super friendly and doesn't move on until everyone understands the concepts. I would take a class with him again.

David Englund is a great teacher who makes difficult concepts easy to understand. He offers lots of real world examples and extra credit to help raise scores. His tests are tough, but he will raise scores if the average is too low. He is always available to help students out. He saves money by not requiring the textbook.

Professor Englud makes dry material exciting by engaging the students and using real world examples. If you are attentive during class his exams aren't too difficult and he curves if the average is too low. It is obvious that he cares about the education of his students and he is a genuinley great instructor. 10/10 would take again

Makes class fun but get ready to write

David is a really good lecturer. he made econ exciting and interesting. did not require books and only gave tests on what we went over it lecture. you can skip but you are only hurting yourself. would take again.

Dr. Englund was a great professor who I would gladly have again. Going to class is pretty much required because each day is worth a few points. Tests are straight forward. Dr. Englund liked to engage the class which made learning the material a little more entertaining.

Super easy to get along with and makes sure everyone in the class understands the concepts before moving on. Just don't use your phone in class! It will not end well for you!

Makes the concepts super easy to understand and in turn made the test easy for those that attended class regularly. Uses real world examples and engages the students in the lecture and is willing to go off on small tangents that students may have.

Excellent professor. Makes concepts easy for literally anyone to understand. Tells funny stories and engages the class (180 students) in casual conversation or uses them in examples to explain concepts. Really wants everyone to understand the material and will go back if needed. Made extensive use of clickers. Fun class, totally recommended.

Has decent lectures, and has clicker points every class. class is mostly conceptual, and pretty easy. Easy to pass if you show up every day. No homework. One complaint is he seems to hate all technology, does not allow phones or computers in class.

David is a really good professor. He relates on students' levels, and loves active discussion. For a class of over 150 ag students, it was nice that he'd let us debate in class about things (i.e. GMOs, markets, etc). He asks if we understand, and makes you feel welcome to say if you don't. Going to class is important, but if you do, tests are easy.

Super funny! Do not share flickers!!! Beware about that! Also sit in front row for ec

I loved Englund as a professor. He engages with the students, and makes a boring subject fun and easy to learn. Go to class, he'll give you all of the notes. Don't share your clickers. Speak up, and he'll give you extra credit points. Tests are going to be the bulk of your grade, but pay attention and study and you'll do fine.

an honest and straigforward techer, willing to joke and play in class. He is abousltly willing to help if you just ask, and yes that is even for non-class questions such as what show is good, what movie to watch or what he did over the weekend.

He's a pretty good professor. Don't need the book, take good notes and you'll be fine

Good professor who definitely cares about Econ. If you go to class and study and get the tests from the previous years you will be guaranteed a B. I however found it hard to get an A in the class because most of your points come from the tests. Overall easy B hard A and a good professor.

Jeremy's class is tough and you cannot get by with not reading and doing the homework. However he is always willing to help when needed and will answer emails no later than 24 hours after you email. Overall the class was tuff but do-able.

Lectures are well planned. He gives you plenty of time to take notes. All in all I liked the class. The only issue is that most of the points come from the tests and they are so few questions it's challenging to get an A on them.

I really enjoyed his teaching, he makes jokes and keeps the mood light for long lectures. He helps people understand the material on an everyday level. You have to be in class for clicker points which are only given for correct answers. You cannot have any electronic devices out during his class or you're basically screwed.

Solid teacher, he is entertaining. Must show up to class for an A or B. Not an electronics guy, so no cell phones or laptops allowed, even for note taking. Overall I would recommend.

Great teacher. For students experienced in Econ class may be slow, but concepts are explained well and thorough. His brand of humor is dry but funny and he keeps you interested. I would heavily recommend him over Aziz if you can help it.

Englund's 201 class is pretty simple. Graded by 5 tests with 1 dropped, and the other 20% are clicker points. His humor is dry and some might say he seems rude but you can tell he's just trying to spice things up a little bit. Some test questions catch you off guard even if you don't skip but this isn't a hard class if you put any effort into it.

Make sure you show up, clicker points are vital. Tests are difficult, it helps to read and analysis the book because some test questions are book info. Lectures are his main way of teaching so there is no homework. Eager to meet and help students during his office hours. Overall hes a good guy who wants you to learn and pass but effort is required.

Clicker points are a big deal in this class, all information is provided through the lecture, and PowerPoint slides are not provided online so regular attendance is an absolute must. He's a quirky guy but is, in my opinion, a very competent teacher. Class should be fairly easy provided you always attend.

Dr. Englund is very passionate lecturer. You need a clicker and license, otherwise you miss out on a huge percent of your grade. Lecture attendance is critical, nothing's on Blackboard. Pay attention in class. The tests have some straightforward questions, but a lot of questions make you really think. Take good notes and don't skip this class.

Professor Englund does a great job explaining tough concepts, and cares that students understand the topics. He relies heavily on clickers, so you better show up to class (counts for 100 of your 500 points). 4 tests (drop 1) and a final. Some extra credit opportunities during lectures. Lectures can get a bit boring, but overall a great teacher.

Mr. Englund is an excellent professor to take this class with. He's very thorough during lectures and happy to help students with question. He attempts to make everything relatable to the real world. You must attend class and have a physical clicker, not the on your smart phone. No technology besides a clicker is allowed in his class.

Englund is a funny guy who cares about the subject and makes pretty good real-life examples. Show up to class because clickers are 20% of your grade. Don't buy the book. You won't use it. Tests are hit and miss with difficulty. If you study and show up to class, an A is definitely possible though.

Class with England was interesting, that's for sure. Make sure you go to class and take good notes. You DO NOT want to get caught on your phone during his class. Tests can be difficult, but if you find someone who has old test, they are like 90% the same thing.

Great Guy. if you sit in the front he will love you

David Englund's a solid choice. The class is scored through multiple choice and clicker points. 5 tests, one dropped. If you want to learn something take Englund.

Keeps it interesting and tries to have fun. Pretty easy class. 9/10 would recommend.

Very clear with his expectations. Must go to class in order to get clickers. Sit towards front for chances for extra credit. Takes breaks in lecture to let you relax. One test is dropped which is great. Doing the reading really helps. Great professor. If you really want to LEARN econ, this is the professor for you.

Amazing teacher. Very clear when explaining content. One of the best teacher I've ever had. Pretty easy class just don't skip because not only will you miss clicker question, you will be behind in lecture. He also doesn't put notes online so it will be hard to catch up. Just show up and you'll be fine. If you participate you get extra credit.

Best prof I've had at NDSU. No homework besides studying notes from class. Must attend for 5 clicker points a day and for notes. tests are multiple choice and 33 questions and the worst one gets dropped. Don't be on your phone in class, show up, take notes and you'll do fine. If you participate you can earn easy extra credit.

Definitely one of my favorite professors here at NDSU, he has good lectures and takes the class relatively slow. I would say that he does use a lot of masculine models and examples, and he calls on people a lot. Otherwise make sure you take good notes and you will pass the class.

Loved having Professor Englund!! He made class fun by not just droning on in front of everyone but by having us engage and give opinions. He does daily clicker points on a physical clicker so you have to show up. Also he does not allow phones or laptops in his class.

He teaches very well just show up and take notes and you should have no problems. He will give you everything you need to know in class

Easy class if you go to lecture and pay attention. Dave is very engaging and easy to talk to.

Mr. Englund was one of my favorite professors. His class is pretty easy if you show up, take notes, and do the clicker questions. He also didnt really assign homework. Tests and clicker points made up almost all of the grading. He also gives you bonus points if you answer questions during class. I never even bought the textbook.

I enjoyed having David as an Econ professor. I didn't find the class particularly easy by any means but it wasn't because of his teaching. He provides you with great notes and is very gracious when it comes to grading. Your grade is based off of four exam scores and clicker points. If you work hard to understand the material, you will pass.

He is clearly very passionate about what he does, his lectures are interesting. Be sure to take extensive notes and don't miss any classes. Good teacher but he hates technology. Was required to buy a physical clicker even though there is a free app, no content posted online, won't stream class under any circumstances, even when i had covid.

He was very entertaining

One of my favorite professors but the class is more difficult. The professor keeps the content interesting by using people in class as examples. He also makes dumb jokes frequently. You can tell he is passionate with teaching and loves what he does. He doesn't allow any electronics. Its all paper and pencil and physical clickers.

One of the better professors I've had so far. It is lecture heavy but explains it very good and makes it easy to understand. Makes jokes to lighten up the mood. Show up everyday because everyday is worth clicker points, and helps as a buffer for tests. He drops the lowest test and 6 days worth of clicker points. I would 100% take his class again.

He is a good guy that definitely loves what he does. He loves to engage with the class. He tells a decent amount of cheesy jokes and he loves the San Diego Pades. You get graded on clicker questions, so you have to show up. The tests are difficult because he grades on you understanding the concepts not the definitions.

He is the best professor I've had so far in college. He makes sure that you understand what he is teaching. You need to be in class to get the notes for the exams. He is always open to questions and is willing to help. Your grade is based on only 4 tests and clicker points but if you pay attention in class you could get all the points for clickers.

4 tests that are pretty hard and he creates his own questions. drops the lowest score and then 1 final lecture has clickers daily so attendance isn't required but thats where you learn and get points. no homework except studying and if you listen and take notes you learn he loves what he does he enjoys work and makes it interesting.

David is a great professor. It was his first semester at USD and all the students enjoyed him. You must show up every day to receive quiz points (one question beginning of class) He has 6 homework assignments where you work in groups and create study guides (really easy). 3 exams that cover everything in class. No need to purchase book, seriously.
