i heard that there is a lecture where they give typed notes for you to copy from does anyone know where that is?

also for the comp 114 assignements is it on db?

 

[jlh]

i don't think they give you typed notes...
but i've heard that the way the lecturer operates is that there are notes on the overhead which he/she just reads off and you just copy them... its the 1pm lecture in X5B i think.. its not the 1pm MACTH lecture...

we have a comp114 assignment?

i'm in the other 1pm lecture (not the macth) and according to her... they'll post up the notes the week before the final exams. but if u want notes, u should go to the lady's lecture coz she gives overhead notes. unlike the guy in macth, i heard he just basically talks alot. ciao!

 

[jlh]

uh allan is a pretty good lecturer... (macth 1pm)
he explains it in a way you can understand it....

i haven't been to the other 1pm one but i'm assuming all she does is read off the slides?

yeh i go to the 'other' 1pm lecture as well, i stopped going to McHarg's ones after 2wks, simply bcos i wasnt taking enough (if ne) notes.

the lady's lecture basically involves non-stop copying down notes off overheads for 50mins, while in the MacTh it was just a draw few models here & there

Each to their own i guess....

if you listen and make notes goto mc harg

if you just want to bludge goto le plastrier (sp?)

Vicki, (The other econ111 lecturer) i think is not that good.
She's my workshop tutor, and every-time we discuss a recent topic,
e.g, Oppurtunity cost, or Comparative advantage, or elasticity, or Substitution etc, she simply follows up, "Whoever is in my lecture, dont worry, we havent covered that yet" - she said that half a dozen times last week.

I was like, what on earth do they do in that other stream.

 

[redruM]

mcharg is a good lecturer....there is not one thing he has said that was confusing, at the time. i wouldnt have a clue now...

 

[Grizzly]

I dont like the fact that what he is teaching isnt in our textbook
Edgeworth/Bowley Box Diagram , Indifference curves, etc

 

[redruM]

oh the textbook...right....what does it look like again?

i havent read more than ch1 still...

 

[Grizzly]

No need anymore redrum, what he says isnt even based from the book!

 

[redruM]

well i'm screwed

 

[jlh]

yeah i gotta agree with foragoodcause...
mcharg is pretty good... the 3pm guy is ok as well, macri... he's got power point slides with key information that you just copy down...

the textbook mcharg gets all his examples from is from another textbook by gans, king and mankiw... but the textbooks are pretty much the same...

My friend told me to attend Allan Mcharg's lecture in the following weeks before the mid-semester break. because the assignment sheets will be handout soon and allan always tend to give brief answers or directions in answering those questions in the assignment.... the other lady Vicki does provide some assistance but its not as good as allan without her overheads LOL.... i doubt she has overheads on those answers! hehehehe

 

[pb]

i like the new 3pm lecturer cuz we get overheads to copy now
but i'm screwed for econ
my notes are just unlabelled diagrams that all look the same
i need better notes
*looks at boyboy*

 

[flyin']

the key to econ111 is taking good notes from mcharg, and doing nothing else besides maybe the tute questions.

 

[golfstick]

yeah that guy is a guru

i will do better in this than in 110 because i'm forced to write my own notes
