Andreas Markoulakis is a Lecturer in the Department of Economics at the University of Warwick. He teaches modules including EC134: Topics in Applied Economics, EC229: Economics of Strategy, and EC138: Introduction to Environmental Economics. His research spans Behavioral Economics, Experimental Economics, and Microeconometrics, with a focus on energy policy, environmental economics, and pedagogical innovations. He has conducted studies on the One-Minute Paper (OMP) teaching intervention, analyzing its impact on student engagement and comprehension across seminar sessions. This intervention, implemented in EC138, employs paper-based feedback to assess student understanding and has shown discrepancies in responses when framing questions differently (e.g., addressing hesitant students explicitly). Education: PhD in Economics from the University of Kent Key research areas: Energy security policy, creative production incentives, and the application of experimental methods in economics Teaching responsibilities include advising international students and assessing graduate teaching assistants His work on the OMP intervention highlights lower comprehension rates when questions explicitly acknowledge student hesitation, suggesting potential barriers for non-native English speakers or shy students. He also explores long-term learning retention and the correlation between OMP feedback and academic performance. Future research directions include expanding the OMP analysis to broader student demographics and integrating assessment with formal exam performance data. Contributions to educational practices include publishing findings on small-group teaching effectiveness and fostering transparent communication between instructors and students. Ongoing projects involve studying semiconductor economics' impact on labor markets and AI's role in creative industries.
