Easiest class ever! Just need to read the textbook, and answer some weekly discussion prompts/quizzes. Questions are all multiple choice, and untimed. The final itself is 35% of your grade however. Because this is online learning, do not expect too much interaction from your professor. Great for individuals with busy schedules and need flexibility.

I took Econ 101 (online) with Professor Javanmard a few semesters ago in 2021. A textbook was not required as he provided online links to reading resources and provided slides to help further your studies. Be sure to read the text and slides + some effort a class to pass with an A or B grade.

I took professor Javanmard class online and it's not that bad since most of his questions are easy and from the book he gives you for each module. All the homework and finals are all multiple choices; with two chances. Overall, easy online class if you need to finish your GE!

Professor Javanmard is awesome! His course is very simple and straightforward. Make sure to watch the videos provided for you in each section and make sure to read. He also responds back to emails within minutes or a few hours. Overall I had an excellent experience. You will learn many different topics in a simple way. Very easy to understand.

I enjoyed ECON 101 so much that I am taking ECON 102 with Professor Javanmard. Plan on reading and taking quizzes and participating in discussions. I enjoyed being able to work at my own pace and it felt good to be ahead of the calendar.

Professor Javanmard was a great teacher of Economics. He gave access to most of the course work in the very beginning of the class, therefore, if you had other classes to worry about you can focus on them. He gave two attempts on quizzes, and he re-uses questions from past quizzes on the final. He's great, and I would take him again!

Professor Javanmard was an amazing professor. He had all the work readily available since the beginning of the semester. The work was easy and manageable. You can do your work on your own time and at your own pace. The final was easy as it consisted of questions from the assignments.
