I have been teaching for over 30 years revolving around microeconomics, game theory, innovation and more recently sustainability.
And this summer, I taught Introduction to Game Theory as part of the Maastricht University Summer School. According to the Maastricht Summer School Administration, it was highly appreciated. Here, are a few of the testimonials:
“Thank you for the course, it was really interesting and helpful even in daily life.”
“Once again, thank you for the course, it was truly interesting and engaging.”
“It was a pleasure meeting you and I hope to see you again someday, as one often does. Thank you for taking time to always explain the concepts to us, even if it may sometimes have taken a few tries until we grasped them.”
“During the summer course, I learnt a lot, I found it very interesting. Thank you so much for teaching us!”
Then Chaitali, a student from India who is an intern at Friend In Need India Trust, the Charity that I run, asked me: “Why don’t you offer courses that you have been teaching all these years to the world? They sound very interesting, why shouldn’t more students benefit from your teaching?”
This got me thinking, that my retirement and my independent platform via SITE4Sustainability offer me a unique platform to teach game theory and the economics of innovation in my own way—integrating them with today’s sustainability challenges and encouraging learners of all ages to engage with them. So, Thank you Chitali for this brilliant idea!
Indeed, as an active retiree (!) this seems the right time to take my years of teaching to a broader community of learners. It is exciting to be able to make knowledge more accessible, relevant, and impactful. After all, learning game theory and the economics of innovation should also mean learning how to change the game for sustainability through innovation.
