Real outcomes
It's not Polanyi. It's the grade.
Political economy students lose points for theory that doesn't engage cases, empirical analysis with weak identification, or essays that confuse Marxist with Keynesian frameworks. AskSia tightens those.
3.2->3.8+0.6
For development I dropped Acemoglu and Robinson into AskSia. Got inclusive versus extractive institutions mapped to case examples. Aced the comparative analysis.
3.0->3.7+0.7
The flashcards AskSia built for political economy theorists tagged each by argument and exemplar case. Spaced repetition handled the cumulative final.
