'Video' Lecture on Consumer and Producer Surplus.

[Rajaram Krishnan]

Dear ALl:

I've been trying to send this across to you all for sometime now....but the file size seems to be too big for Googledocs to handle. However I've now got it into Dropbox and it can be accessed by anyone. The link is

What is this file? Here is a lecture on Consumer and Producer Surplus. I know it is long (by the 5 minute standard). I'm not worried about that. I will be telling students that they can break it into convenient viewing pieces depending on their attention spans. But I'd like to make each lecture topically whole. There is a  class problem set that goes with these lectures, but I'll spare you from those.

I would like your feedback on content and texture. If it is too long to watch the whole thing, feel free to just watch a little and give me feedback. Among other things, I'd like to get a sense of how your students would react to it if you made them watch this. So if you have the time and inclination, please view it and pass on your comments.

I experimented with LiveScribe and Educreations, and for now am going the LiveScribe route. I've saved it as a pdf document. I think you need the latest Acrobat Reader and Adobe Flash to view it. It works on Macs too. Jonathan got one of these files to play on his Mac. 

Looking forward to your comments.

Regards
Rajaram
