生態學：我們地球的科學

Learners will gain a foundation in the field of ecology. We will cover key concepts such as trophic levels, species interaction, and ecosystem management. Students will explore the connection between the living and nonliving components of the ecosystem. We will pay special attention to the role humans play in our environments, and how ecology is related to the other sciences. 

Ecology is not only a fascinating field but is also important for understanding how our world works. 

We will investigate questions such as:
What is ecology?
How do we study natural systems?
What is the scientific method?
How do populations change over time?
How do ecosystems adapt to change?
What is the biosphere?

There is no textbook or prerequisites for this class, just a love of learning and curiosity about ecology. All necessary learning materials will be provided in the classroom. Classes are designed to encourage student engagement and follow their curiosity.
Each week we will cover a new topic in a 30-40 minute lecture that builds on the concepts and knowledge from the previous weeks. 

Optional homework assignments are provided for each lesson. Weekly feedback is provided by the instructor and questions are highly encouraged!
