the class is set up for success as long as you keep up with the assignments and do the module reading as some questions on quizzes or exams are derived straight from the book.
dr. knight is amazing. he gives a lot of on the spot examples to help further your understanding of the topics.
pay closer attention to the lecture videos and do the module readings

I feel like I did not need this course for what I intended to do for a job in the future, but the information was useful.
There are about 2 online lecture videos a week with one quiz due at the end of the week. The workload is very light as long as you keep up with the lectures and quizzes, which don't take that much time.
Professor Knight is one of the best professors I have had so far at UF. He does a great job at explaining the concepts and following up with real life examples that make them easier to understand.
If you're scared to take this class because you have never taken macroeconomics or microeconomics before, don't be. I found that the best way to complete this course is my actually watching the lectures and taking notes, NOT using study edge. Students who used study edge did worse on the exams than the students who actually just learned the material.

Honestly not too bad, just keep up with the lectures.
The content itself isn't too bad as long as you watch the lectures and keep up to date on everything. It's about two lectures a week along with a quiz and a short writing assignment that alternates every other week. Everything is pretty easy to grasp in regards to the content itself.
Really personable. I loved his teaching style which seems to integrate the students he's live lecturing to with the material. I think i would have struggled a lot more if he wasn't the one teaching it.
The textbook is useful but definitely not necessary, just make sure to do the weekly practice problems before doing the quizzes and you should get 90+ on each one.

This class was very well taught. I didn't put near as much work into it as I should have. I definitely could have gotten an A if I had taken time to read the modules.
There are lectures, weekly homework assignments, quizzes, exams, and a few writing assignments that are not too bad.
Professor Knight is still one of the best professors I've ever had. He is an amazing lecturer and genuinely cares about the quality of his class more than any other professor I've had.
Read the modules! I thought I could get away with not reading them, but there are always a couple exam questions that are straight out of the textbook.
