BIOL 1970 - Topics In Biology

Institution:

University of Utah

Subject:

Biology

Description:

The U of U faculty continues to publish empirical research based upon the outcomes of NOLS students. NOLS uses evidence-based programming to manage curriculum, and routinely audits course content, measuring the hours of instruction. Based on last year's program audits. NOLS semesters (e.g. India & Mexico) actually offer many more hours of Biology instruction than needed for 4 hours of credit, however some semesters offer fewer hours than are necessary. In general, NOLS prefers to align the curriculum with the practical experiences students encounter on the expedition. Pedagogically this organic approach provides greater intrinsic motivation, supports the over-learning that helps students apply basic concepts in broader contexts, and better supports the transfer of concepts.
