Teaching Microeconomics: Insights and Innovations

This is my site of reflections on teaching microeconomics—on my way of teaching it, what works (and what fails), and what it does to the way students think. I write as a classroom practitioner: sometimes as a methodologist, sometimes as a sceptical “belfer,” always with one goal in mind—to treat teaching as serious intellectual work rather than routine delivery of a syllabus.

I share notes from the classroom, sample tasks and exam prompts, and small interactive tools (often built in R/Shiny). Whenever possible, I also share the resources behind them: code, files, and links—because good teaching should be reproducible, not mysterious.

My work is gathered under the title “Know Thyself Through Microeconomic Theory.” It blends experimental economics, Data Science tools, Monte Carlo simulations, and—when useful—elements of physics, philosophy, and ethics. The aim is to connect orthodox and heterodox perspectives into a coherent educational program inspired by Vernon Smith’s vision of humanistic economics, grounded in experimental research and ecological rationality, where social norms and logical reasoning are equally important.

If you teach, study, or simply enjoy thinking with models, feel free to explore, reuse, and adapt what you find here. If you comment, challenge, or improve something, even better—this project grows through conversation.
