Professor Cech is AWESOME! Taught from the text but we rarely ever used it in class. Very little homework, a few quizzes, two midterms and a final (all online).

Take good notes, do the 4 homework assignments and ask for help in or out of class. Do this and you will get an easy A. 2 mids & 1 final all online. Class helps you understand the news. Only complaint is Mid-1 should have been at week 4 not 7. You will not regret taking this class or prereq 2013, unless you are very lazy.

He will let you take the midterms late if needed, and will go over every answer on the homework with you one-on-one. You MUST do the homework in preparation for the two midterms and final, which are the only grades. & Ask questions!

Professor Cech is one of my all time favorite Professors. I learned so much with his help. His personal background makes learning fun and easy, his love for the United States makes you, in turn, love the U.S.A. I cannot recommend him enough to all of my friends and colleagues. I have so much respect for Professor Cech. 20/10 rating - hes THAT good!

Good professor and you can tell hes passionate about what he talks about. Easy A, a study hall class for me. Really boring lectures unless youre interested in the topics but as long as you go to class, you pass.

The professor ties his lectures to today's problems in terms of senators if they are doing a great job or not. Also, he is passionate about the eco subject. I enjoyed his lectures because it made me feel that I want to change the world. There are two exams nothing more. Furthermore, I recommend everyone to take this professor for sure.

None of the homeworks are graded, we only had 7 total in the whole 15 week course, but if you aren't strong in math do the whole thing. Take pictures of the board in class, ask lots of questions, he will go over every step and make sure you know the material.

Good professor. He tries to make sure you know the material, and his lectures are pretty long but going to class is worth it. Also, he is very passionate (in a good way) about America and will definitely make it known. Only two midterms. Don't be afraid to participate in his discussions, he likes the interactions. Easy A.

Professor Cech is fine for teaching basic economics but he has a very skewed and biased view of history. He will talk about politics a lot, but always gives the view that America is the best country on Earth and it's so great, and all its atrocities can be excused because its exceptional. Easy class, but bad understanding of politicaleconomy.

He was a very nice professor, but his lectures were very long and boring. He could probably teach the whole course in about one lecture, but he really likes to go off topic. He only has 2 grades, the midterm and the final. If you study and pay attention it is an easy A! But be sure to pay attention during lectures! They are not proctored as well!

If you show up its automatically an easy A. Beware! You will have to sit through many lectures that have nothing to do with econ lol. He doesnt actually teach econ formulas or anything, he just talks about econ. You have to go home and teach yourself via the worksheets.

There is little homework and it's not required but I strongly advise that you do it because he will not go into too much detail about the formulas on the homework and the midterms are completely based off of the homework.

I took Prof Cech for both Macro and Micro Econ. One of the best teachers! Two midterms amount to your full grade. Do H.W. to know how to complete midterms. Take lots of notes on the specifics of what is taught, and you will do just great. In-person class is more fun. He teaches based on real personal stories. Sad this is my last class with Prof C.

Sometimes he can be off-topic, but that just made the class more enjoyable to me. Only 2 exams, both easy. If you have to take Econ, make sure it's him!
