Welcome to class! Finally the day has come that we are unveiling the online version of BIOL190 – Introduction to Alaska’s Flora (in its sixth year).\u00a0 \u00a0Sorry the video is using the old class name, but you are in the right class BIOL190. I hope you are as excited as I am to learn about our incredible flora, get to know some of its players by name, and get close and personal with them through plant dissection. \u00a0 The class will throw a lot of new terms at you, do not despair if that is a little overwhelming at first. \u00a0 Look at it like learning a new language, you want to talk with your foreign friend and have a good conversation, but first you need to get all the vocabulary down. The first conversation might not be as refined as you may wish, but it will all fall into place once you have many small conversation with your friend(s) and classmates, and soon the concept of botanical terms will become second nature. Soon you will sit at the kitchen table and contemplate using canned or fresh berries for your tomato sauce :). \u00a0 Have fun, and I am looking forward to learning more about the plants that grow in your area, and your adventures exploring your outdoor botanical laboratory.<\/p>\n
As some of you night have noticed, you will see posts from previous students on the WordPress site. That was done by design. You might even be interested in browsing through previous posts. \u00a0 Lots of good stuff there from students that took the class in previous years. \u00a0 Please do not plagiarize their work though :).<\/p>\n
Cheers, Steffi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
