Ratings and Reviews for Model Thinking

Excellent course to change your thinking

I couldn't get through it, a little tour of wikipedia would be far more enlightening: - The lecturer remarks that application to the real world (and model fertility) are a goal of the course, but spends almost no time talking about real world applications. - A lot of the lectures are getting bogged down in simple math: why do I need to go through look-up table examples for cellular automata? - Lots of mistakes in each lecture, quiz questions are fairly poorly structured (asking who invented a particular model doesn't actually reinforce understanding) - Class structure doesn't seem very thought out. Each category of models has an intro video that gives an overview as-if I were in a 10th grade english class, with 10+ minutes wasted with an overview where we should just jump right in. To be honest, I'm not even very certain the lecturer understands many of the models he's presenting very well.

Well

I appreciated this course's focus on providing students the tools to become a many model thinker. I found the content enlightening because of fresh insights it provided to previous coursework I took in economics and statistics.

Very good vourse

Very clear, well-explained, enjoyable and stimulating.

Useful if you are curious about models in general.
