In this 7 week class, a learner will become familiar with plant biology - including the importance of native plants, plant roles in ecosystems, parts of a plant, and cool plants in North America.  This online self paced class will enable a learner to learn at one's own pace.  A learner is welcome to reach out and ask questions.  Each week's worth of classes has a number of brief videos teaching the concepts for that week.  Homework is available, but optional.  This course is very adaptable to a wide range of learning levels from junior high (middle school) to high school and will provide info on what would be the requirement in high school if one were to study plant biology at that level.
