This class explores population dynamics within an ecosystem. Students delve into limiting factors and carrying capacity. The class stands out by incorporating hands-on investigations and real-world case studies to illustrate these dynamic relationships. Through interactive activities and labs, students will develop a deeper understanding of ecological interdependence and the factors driving biodiversity. This course is structured with lecture notes followed by activities relevant to the notes that have students recall knowledge, then apply knowledge, then create something to show their knowledge. Each day, students will move through a few engaging activities relevant to the day's topics. Students will interact via online lecture notes, games, activities, labs, and videos. My teaching style is engaging, student-centered, and interactive, focused on creating meaningful connections between theoretical concepts and real-world applications. I emphasize hands-on learning through activities and labs that encourage critical thinking and active participation. I accommodate diverse learning styles, fostering an inclusive environment where students feel supported in exploring complex topics.
