Course description
This course is designed to enable students to integrate the entirety of their undergraduate liberal arts education to topical issues in Biology. Students will be challenged to investigate a biology problem politically, economically, ethically, and technically and communicate their findings to peers using a variety of technologies. Completion of this course establishes the basis for the life long learning process of applying biology content material to real world problems. By choosing topics that transcend traditional boundaries among specialized sub-disciplines of biology and other fields, students are encouraged to view problems from a holistic and integrative perspective. In the Wikipedia project, students will focus on adding meaningful content about Federal or State laws on Science or Science Policy.
