COURSE DESCRIPTION
Course Level Bachelor's Degree
Course Type Elective
Course Objective The objective of the course is to create awareness of plant, animal and biodiversity among students by enabling them to classify living things around us based on scientific knowledge and scientific method. By engaging learners through active learning involving project-based learning as a means to enhance their awareness toward biological diversity, conversation and sustainability of biological diversity will develop pro environmental behaviors, knowledge, interest, values and individual responsibility toward nature.
Course Content To enable to distinguish primitive seedless plants such as mosses and ferns from seed plants. To raise awareness of flower structure, pollination (examination of pollen under microscope), fruit and seed formation and dispersal of seeds in angiosperms. To raise awareness about difference between fruits and vegetables.To classify the leaf, flowers and fruit samples collected from flowering plants (angiosperms) according to their morphological characteristics and to understand their importance in plant systematics. To enable students to make their systematic using gymosperms samples collected from the environment. Identify and classify arthropods, including many species. Using the identification key, students classify the subclasses of arthropoda as insecta, arachnida, myropoda and crustacea species.
Prerequisites No the prerequisite of lesson.
Corequisite No the corequisite of lesson.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES
2By recognizing the richness of flora and fauna of our country to increase student’s awareness about biological diversity, endemic, and endengared species in our environment.
1Learn the basic principles of systematic and classify living things into taxonomic categories.
3Increase their awareness and interest in environmental events and strengthening their ties with nature through experiences in nature related to project-based activities in nature.
4With field works based on scientific inquiry in nature, students' awareness of fungi, non-flowering/flowering plants, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds morphology, insects, spiders, vertebrate/invertebrate animals increases.
5Contribute to students' nature awareness, literate individuals by developing basic knowledge, skills, attitudes and values about the nature.
