Scarcity: Learn Economics

A four-year economics curriculum, offline, with no account and no network. Scarcity covers the standard micro and macro sequence plus the applied fields: microeconomic foundations first, then market failure and the state, then macroeconomics and money, then applied and contemporary questions. WHAT IS INSIDE 100 lessons across four years, each 15 to 25 minutes, with on-device narration 60 economist profiles, from Smith and Ricardo to Card and Piketty 673 glossary terms, cross-linked to the lessons that use them 20 quizzes with worked explanations for every answer 18 landmark cases where theory met the world, from the minimum wage studies to the 2008 crisis Spaced repetition that schedules the terms you keep forgetting Bookmarks and notes on any lesson, profile or term Three Home Screen widgets: a quote, a term and a figure, each changing daily HOW IT TEACHES Economics has live disagreements, and this course teaches them as disagreements rather than picking a side. On the minimum wage you get Card and Krueger and you get the critiques. On austerity you get the multiplier debate and the Reinhart-Rogoff spreadsheet error. On inequality you get Piketty and the objections to r > g. Where the evidence is settled the lesson says so; where it is not, you get the state of the argument. FREE AND PAID The first ten lessons are free. One purchase of $9.99 unlocks the remaining 90 and everything else, permanently. There is no subscription, there are no ads, and there is no account to create. Family Sharing is supported. OFFLINE BY DESIGN The app makes no network connections. Every lesson, profile, glossary entry, quiz and case study is bundled in the download, so the whole course works in airplane mode. Nothing you read or write here leaves your device.
