Comment:
No homework, good professor, and clear grading criteria. Class is just hard because it is just midterms. Overall, glad I am taking it. He wants kids to do well, and makes some funny jokes. One downside: man has really bad hand writing. But, still good class and interesting stuff.

Somewhat confusing in class lectures and often goes through material too fast but incredibly helpful during office hours. An A is definitely possible if you go to class and office hours for clarification.

He is an amazing professor. He teaches the material very well. If you don't understand the material he taught in class, go to his office hours and you will feel confident again. TAKE HIS CLASS

Comment:
econ 180 is the seminar that goes with thesis. burdekin is the nicest guy in the world, and he's always willing to help. a lot of professors at cmc make you see them in person before they'll be helpful at all, but burdekin reads through e-mails and replies thoroughly. that's amazingly convenient and it shows how much he cares about his students!

Comment:
Burdekin is a decent teacher and a nice guy. his class is a little dry, but there is minimal hw and the tests are graded on a giant curve. that being said, people will literally fail his class, but if you study hard for just 2 exams and a final, you'll do well. I would recommend him, but i would not discourage someone from taking a different class.

Comment:
Professor Burdekin is a very intelligent and articulate teacher. If you do not pay attention in class your notes are meaningless once you get around to them. His tests are challenging but everything is very straight forward. The presentation is kind of a joke and putting in the time generally results in a good score.

Comment:
I had a hard time with Burdekin. As a visual learner, I learn by taking notes. He uses up/down arrows to indicate changes in economic indicators, and in a whirlwind he changes all the arrows without allowing note-takers time to copy it down.

Puts the material in your lap for you. Understand the graphs during class and the practice tests inside and out and there is no way you can not pull a B+ or higher.
