Jodi Beggs is Ph.D. student and lecturer of Business Economics at Harvard University. Her primary research is on behavioral economics, incentives and consumer behavior and the analysis of public policy.

Her Welcome to Economics 101! page comprises of 93 videos, varying in length and topic. I find this a great additional resource to my teaching of basic AS Economics lessons, but also for some of the IB Higher Level Paper 3 Economics material we cover this year.

Happy Christmas.
