【Course Objectives】

This course aims to create an awareness of and concern about ecology and its associated environmental problems, with the goal for students to discuss these issues and present possible solutions in English. Students will investigate the ecological interactions that shape natural ecosystems resulting in the evolution of species, and the influences of humans on the wider systems that support life on our planet. Students will also acquire critical thinking skills and appropriate English expressions to effectively communicate these ecological issues through discussion, reports, and presentations.

【Course Contents】

Cycle 1: Ecosystem interactions and evolution.
How do organisms interact within and between species? How do these interactions function in ecosystems? How do the interactions affect species over time?
Cycle 2: Global systems and human influence.
What are the global systems that have allowed life to proliferate on our planet? How have humans affected these systems? What can we expect in the future and how can we protect life on Earth?
