Dersin İçeriği
|
The main focus of this course is modern/contemporary biology, earth science and astronomy with special emphasis on the societal topics related to these sciences. The purpose of the course is to develop a natural science literacy among social science students, by presenting them the main theories and methods used in biology, earth science and astronomy conceptually without any use of mathematics. In the first part of the course we cover the main topics in biology such as cells, genetics, classifications and origin of living things. Ecology and human anatomy. In the second part of the course we study the main concepts in earth science such as plate tectonics, surface processes, basics of meteorology, environmental geology. We end the course by discussing solar system and origin and development of our universe, hence teaching students the main ideas in astronomy and cosmology.
