Hi Jennifer,
At this time we haven’t locked down the exams in the way you describe. They are more meant to be a way for students to test themselves at this point rather than a rigorous from of accreditation or anything. We might get there someday.

Thanks for writing in and please continue sharing your feedback. We are trying to provide a valuable supplement for professors/teachers, so your feedback is greatly appreciated.

We’re working on a teacher resource section – anything you’d like to see there?

Thank you! I shared the feedback with the entire team. It’s always nice to hear it!

Hi Katie,
Thanks for the suggestion. There are two ways to do this:

1) YouTube playlists
If you use a YouTube playlist like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Meo0s54s1sw&list=PL-uRhZ_p-BM4SmRr1p6WZnfym2zP2O0LH&index=2
it will continuously play. We have playlists setup for some of the courses and are in process of setting up all of them.
2) iTunes
We are posting videos to iTunes, which will allow you to do continuous play. We also have just the audio podcast, which combines a whole section’s videos into one podcast. We’re rolling on both the video and audio podcasts continually. You should see more up soon – let me know if you have a particular course you want first.

Hopefully this helps!

This feature is live now. Go to the course page and look in the upper right hand corner – you’ll see an iTunes button. Everyday Economics has this now, other courses are coming soon.

Not yet! However, we do have our video content on iTunes so you can use any iTunes app.

Hello,
That’s a good question. In general we try to make all of our videos accessible to a beginner. The Everyday content is definitely the most introductory in nature – we’re working on more introductory level content.

However, that shouldn’t discourage you from checking out the other courses such as Development Economics or Great Economists. Those are both very accessible as well.

Thanks for your question.

Thank you Thomas – great idea. We frankly aren’t doing a great job on mobile right now but we’ll get there!

If you have earned a certificate, you should be able to print it as follows:

1) Login to mruniversity.com
2) You should see your profile page – if not, click “my profile” on the top navigation bar
3) On the right you should see certificates you’ve earned – under them you should see “print certificate”.
4) That will bring up a page formatted for printing. On many print screens you’ll see something like “print backgrounds” and “print header and footers” options. Click print background “on”. Leave headers and footers “off”.

Thanks Mohan. Do you have anybody in mind?

Thank you! We greatly appreciate the feedback and your support. It’s very rewarding to hear that folks appreciate the effort we pour into our videos.

Two ideas pop to mind:
1) Use iTunes – our videos are there as well
2) Download the videos directly from our website (you’ll see a download button under the videos)

Hope that helps!

We don’t have a course specifically designed for that age but I think you could find useful content in both Everyday Economics and Principles. I have a 7 year old and he enjoys them!

Here are some ideas. Drop us a note at support@mruniversity.com if you have a specific topic in mind. If we don’t have it we might be able to suggest some other places.

Thank you for the idea!

We have a way to do this already! If you go to mruniversity.com and look at any video page, you should see a “translate” button under the video.

Clicking on it will take you to a tool that allows you to add subtitles. We greatly appreciate any additions we get!

For example, here’s the link for the first video in our Micro course. http://www.amara.org/en/videos/AfeywxXg5Wel/info/introduction-to-economics/

The course is fully complete and live.

Thank you for the feedback and compliments!

We are going to release our Macro on a 1 video per week schedule starting in January 2016.
