Introduction to scientific investigation through
project-based studies of biological phenomena.
Topics in this hands-on course introduce students
to experimental design, data collection, data
analysis, hypothesis testing, and scientific
communication.
Sections 03 and 04: The Forest and its inhabitants. These sections will explore the structure and function of plants and animals and their ecological interactions. Working in groups, students will carry out their own experimental and field-based studies of these phenomena, learn to analyze data in R, and share their results with the class.
