课程概述

This course is an introduction to ecology and ecosystem dynamics using a systems thinking lens. Through a case study on Mozambique's Gorongosa National Park, learners will explore how scientists study ecosystems, and investigate the complex array of factors that inform management efforts. At the end of the course, learners will be able to grapple with real-world conservation questions, such as whether an ecosystem can recover from anthropogenic disruption and what role humans can, and should, play in that recovery....

This was particularly in-depth on the sciences of ecology, and having it based around a particular conservation project made it easier to follow each progressive lecture and concept that was explored.

One of the best course, I have ever taken. The materials is not hard to follow and the in-depth explanation gives you a proper new perspective which is still open to debate due to conservation topic

Species Differentiation of Predator and Prey, which can relate to Niches of Oceanic and Migrating Life may also help benefit us if we leave the responsibility of environment to other species that are not endangered.

One of the most informative courses on ecology I have undertaken so far. The facilitators are well resourced and the case study of Gorongosa National Park, makes it bear a resemblance to an experiential learning

Excellent presentation of both degradation of an ecosystem and a range of methods to help recovery. Careful monitoring and observation helps explain what afforts were helpful and why. Very interesting course.

Great mix of reading and video's. I have enjoyed this a lot. At times I struggled with a few words (as English is not my native language), but it's been mostly explained very well, so those didn't bother me.

Buen curso, ayuda a entender los factores y dinámicas de un ecosistema, así como a dar una mirada más amplia sobre las acciones que deben tomarse en cuenta a la hora de planear cómo conservar un ecosistema.

This was a very well developed and presented course. I particularly liked the challenging nature of the quizzes. They were complex enough to test my comprehension of the material in a very thorough manner.

Me gustó mucho como usaron los lectures de HHMI para armar todo un curso, en el que además, rodeando un estudio de caso, te dan una panorámica de temas súper complejos. Me encantaría que hubiera parte 2.

Excelente curso. Aprendí mucho sobre la naturaleza, la ecología, las relaciones que existen entre los depredadores y sus presas, los herbívoros y sus comidas, y como eso puede afectar todo un ecosistema.

Just essential to understand how the ecosystems work and how humans have a key role in the environment. We should all learn this at school to really get how the world works and how we can save it.
