In oceanography we learn about the sea, the chemistry of the ocean, global climate, and different marine animals. This is a good class to learn about the entire ocean and not just marine animals. I would reccomend this class to anyone who lives in Maui, since we are surrounded by the sea. Some of our lessons require us to complete maps about the coral reefs, tides, plate tectonics, global winds, and longitude and latitude.
In this class I definitely use information skills because I am learning new information about a topic I didn't know much about. Since, most of this is new information I need to take time to absorb and fully understand it. In this class we have weekly assignments to watch several videos and go over the lectures that we did in class. We also read two chapter of the "Science of the Sea" textbook, then do a weekly quiz that is 10-15 questions long. |
