Zoologia (edX)

Comprendere gli animali e i sistemi naturali, attraverso il filo conduttore dell’evoluzione. Un viaggio da percorrere con l’entusiasmo di un bambino e la professionalità di uno studioso. La zoologia è la conoscenza degli animali, i nostri coinquilini. Ci sono centinaia di specie animali che interagiscono insieme a noi in una relazione di comunità o ecosistema. Questo corso di Zoologia è una passeggiata nei temi propri della materia come elemento culturale essenziale per il biologo, il naturalista e chiunque si occupi della vita.

Scopriremo la zoologia attraverso gli animali, cercheremo di conoscerli dal punto di vista della biologia riproduttiva, dell’evoluzione, del loro comportamento e inserimento nell’ecosistema. Diversi esempi ti accompagneranno nella comprensione di questo affascinante mondo, indirizzandoti nella giusta modalità di porsi di fronte alla natura, per la comprensione scientifica ed emozionale.

Zoology is about understanding animals, our neighbours on planet earth. There are hundreds of species that interact with us in diverse communities and ecosystems. This course is a journey through a subject that is essential to any Biologist, Naturalist and Life Scientist. Our approach to zoology is through a knowledge of animals, their evolution, behaviour, reproductive systems and place in the ecosystem. Exploration of this fascinating world is through concrete examples which lead to an understanding of nature which is emotional as well as scientific.

Salmon, People, and Place (edX)

This course explores the relationships between salmon and people with an emphasis on the special ties of salmon to Indigenous peoples and to Alaska Natives in particular. No wild animal has more profoundly influenced the cultures and well-being of societies in North America than salmon. Salmon and people have been entwined in a relationship for millennia. This six-week course is an exploration and celebration of this relationship, as well as an examination of the current major issues, including habitat alterations, climate change, and management actions currently straining the relationship between salmon and salmon-dependent people.

The Chemistry of Life (edX)

Learn how to generate ideas at the interface between chemistry and biology. Chemistry and biology are traditionally taught as separate subjects at the high school level, where students memorize fundamental scientific principles that are universally accepted. However, at the university level and in industry, we learn that science is not as simple as we once thought. We are constantly confronted by questions about the unknown and required to use creative, integrated approaches to solve these problems.
