VALGETS KVALER

I masterfaget MØA350: Miljø- og Ressursøkonomi som jeg underviser dette semesteret har jeg valgt å bruke mappeevaluering med 10 % vektlegging på deltakelse. For å tilfredsstille denne karakterkomponenten har jeg gitt studentene valget mellom å blogge her på MILJØØKONOMENE (minst et hovedinnlegg og fem kommentarer) eller å presentere en vitenskapelig artikkel fra et samfunnsøkonomisk tidsskrift for resten av klassen. Artiklene de kan velge mellom (”første mann til møllen”) er disse:
