How Science Imitates Nature - Let's Learn From Birds (One Week Self Paced Class)

Welcome to the exciting world of biomimicry, where science takes inspiration from nature's most incredible creations. In this one-week flex class, we will embark on a captivating journey into the fascinating world of birds and discover how science imitates their remarkable abilities.

Birds have evolved over millions of years, developing extraordinary adaptations and behaviors that have captivated human curiosity. From their incredible flight mechanics to their superior navigation skills, birds possess a wealth of knowledge that scientists and engineers have tapped into to improve our own technology and innovation.

Throughout this engaging class, students will explore the principles behind biomimicry and learn how scientists study birds to unlock their secrets. We will delve into the intricate design of bird wings and feathers, examining how their unique structures provide lift, maneuverability, and efficiency. Students will gain a thorough understanding of the aerodynamics of flight and the principles that enable birds to soar through the skies effortlessly.

This one week self paced class is designed to be interactive and engaging, with a variety of activities, discussions, and multimedia resources to enhance the learning experience. We will help to engage the learners and make the information more receptive. We will also do a have a little project assigned to work on that we can discuss in the online classroom discussion. Also we will brainstorm where each student will make a drawing and brief description of something they would like to invent based on the animals we discussed in class.

By the end of this class, students will have a newfound appreciation for the wonders of nature and an understanding of how science imitates and learns from birds. They will gain insights into the world of biomimicry and how it shapes our technological advancements. Join us on this inspiring exploration of science and nature, where we unravel the secrets of birds and unlock the potential for innovation within ourselves.
