Overall I thought he was a good teacher that really tried to help you if you needed it. He doesn't put grades in throughout the semester so I went into the final pretty blind about what my grade was.

Comment:

Dr. Currier is a great professor. If you show up to every class (and pay attention) and watch the videos he posts online, there is no reason not to do well. His classes are typically pretty short and almost always end with a practice problem where he goes around helping and making sure everyone understands the material. Wants students to succeed!

Comment:

Overall a good professor. The tests can be tough and his review isn't that great of preparation. He assigns daily videos and readings to do before class. As long as you know the material, they aren't crucial. But, if you aren't sure on a concept, usually the videos help clarify.

Comment:

Not a bad professor. Can be monotone at times but if you can get past that he is a great teacher. He is able to explain the subject matter clearly and if a student doesn't understand a topic, he will spend time to make sure they do.

Comment:

He has a monotone voice which can be a bit boring but I thought he was great. As long as you study for the exams and attend class, you should have no problems getting an A or B. He clearly explains each concept and is very nice if you need extra help. This is an upper division econ class so its not an easy A but with a some effort it is possible.

Comment:

Dr. Currier was the worst economics professor I have had. I love economics but he made the class experience extremely boring and pointless. He treats students with disrespect and acts like they are stupid for not understanding him the first time he explains a concept in difficult language. A horrible asset to Oklahoma State.

Comment:

He's an extremely nice and laid back guy. He reminds me a lot of the dad from American Pie. He understands the material very well and will work with you if you are confused. Class isn't mandatory, but he makes going worth it. I would definitely recommend taking intermediate econ.

Comment:

He took an otherwise boring class and made it worth going to every class period. Being an Intermediate Micro class the tests were obviously difficult but he did his best to prepare us and answers questions fully during the tests.

Good guy, tries to help. Your lifesaver are the old exams. FIND THEM! They are usually exactly the same except maybe a few of the questions.

Good prof. Always tries to explain material as clearly and simply as possible and never tries to overwhelm you. Tests are moderately challenging but not terrible and he generally curves them by a few points.

Comment:

Nice and laid back attitude, but still covers a lot of material. Homework is fairly easy if you a decent mathematical background (you might be surprised). Test are fairly easy to prepare for (really look at that review test he gives out). Clear instruction etc. Not bad at all.

Comment:

Prof. is overly concerned with perfecting the graphs he creates on the board and less than concerned with clarity of concepts. With no old exams, I was completely lost. Not all of the interest in the world could save this course or my grade.

Kev is a good teacher..and never changes his tests much, so it's gravy! I didn't go to class at all between test 2 and 3 and still made a B on the test. Simple, simple, but a boring class..

Comment:

Class is easy ONLY if you have the old exams. Points come from the three exams, so there is no homework. Has difficulty answering questions in class, either because he's nervous or a lack of confidence in his teaching ability. Oh yeah, extremely BORING!!

Dr. Currier is a nice guy and really tries to explain the material. He is always happy to stay after class and further explain the material. His old tests are pretty good study guides too!
