Course Description
The purpose of this course is for you to be able to learn skills and practices that will allow you to critically analyze and evaluate scientific ideas from the world around you. We will do this through the eyes of a scientist, breaking down our personal observations and experiences (like why do we sweat when we run?) to reveal how and why our body functions the way it does.
This course is not about being able to remember facts, but instead, being able to apply the concepts that you learn to explain real world phenomenon. This is to prepare you for life after this class; to give you knowledge that you can use to take agency when deciding what ideals to support or resist, or even guide your own curiosities.
Our weekly agenda below documents the main topics/activities we cover each class. You can also view the slides that I use for our lessons by clicking on the day.
