I designed and taught two sections of Intermediate Microeconomics during the fall 2008 semester. The course covered the theory of the consumer and the theory of the firm. Economics is a powerful science (and a fun one to study) because it provides understanding about how the world around us works. As such, the course placed a strong emphasis on the application of the economic way of thinking to novel situations and challenged students to apply economics in their daily lives. You can find the course syllabus here.
My detailed student evaluations for Section 1 and Section 2 also include all written responses provided by students about (1) what aspects of the course and the way it was taught helped them learn and (2) what modifications they suggest for the next time the course is taught. Here are the results of the two broadest questions, on a scale of 1 (Poor) to 5 (Excellent):
Section 1:
Overall rating of the teaching: Mean: 4.96 Median: 5 SD: .20
Overall rating of the course: Mean: 4.85 Median: 5 SD: .35
Section 2:
Overall rating of the teaching: Mean: 4.96 Median: 5 SD: .21
Overall rating of the course: Mean: 4.75 Median: 5 SD: .63
