Thank you for such a great post! I only took one economics course in my undergraduate career and I think I would have been far more interested in it if multiple viewpoints on the theories and applications were discussed. I also think that this type of discussion could be included in many different disciplines and would be very engaging to students as well as a way to create a more inclusive environment. I know that in my own courses in biomedical engineering, my favorite classes were those in which disagreements between experts on how certain systems in the body worked were discussed. I agree that a diversity of personal experiences and perspectives is a powerful thing and the key to solving some of the world’s biggest problems moving forward.
