Teaching Interests
My teaching interests mirror my research focus on employee ownership, labor economics, economic history, and law and economics, but I am also experienced in teaching macroeconomic and microeconomic theory, environmental economics, industrial organization, economics of cooperatives, and financial economics.
Current courses:
I am currently teaching Principles of Economics-Microeconomics and Introduction to Economic Research Methods at the University of Rhode Island.
Selected Student Feedback:
“I thought Eric was great! I've never had an easy time learning stats through any other instructor and he completely changed that for me.”
“The two professors, Eric and Mary, used real life examples to describe complex ideas. We had lively class discussions and I never wanted to leave when it was time to go.”
“My favorite part of the course was the discussion of game theory. Eric's willingness to help clarify any student's question was always refreshing.”
“Instructor was very helpful in clearing up confusion in materials and very helpful right before exams.”
“The instructor encouraged discussion and group work to understand the concepts and history of the material.”
“He is a very fair grader and always made time for extra office hours if students needed it.”
“Really nice guy. You can tell that he cares about the subject and that his students do well.”
“I like how interactive Eric is with the students. He always asks if we have questions and if we understand.”
