Principles of ecology with a focus on applications and current research appropriate for teachers of secondary school biology. This course is designed for prospective and in-service science teachers who wish to develop a deeper understanding of ecology. Basic themes include how organisms interact with other organisms and their environment, factors that influence the size and stability of populations, how geography affects biodiversity and the application of these principles to current ecological issues including global warming and invasive species. This course is designed to be on-line. In-service science teachers may take the course for graduate credit by completing additional graduate-level course work.
