1.00 At the Travel Agency
|
Hi! Welcome to Biology!
I'm Vicki from Human Resources! and I am here to act as your guide through this first BioTour. We'll explain some of the basics later, but let's get started with some talk about Biology.
What is Biology any way? Well, it is a subject that should be very near and dear to you; it is the study of life!
As you'll see, Biology is the study of life. The course is divided into eight unique BioTours, or modules, as they are called in other online courses. As you take each tour, we hope you'll discover that the study of living things is real, relevant, and quite an adventure! We also hope you'll find the study of Biology fun and challenging!
To be successful you'll have to work hard! You'll want to read directions carefully, pay attention to tips from your tour guide, stay on schedule, and if you really need some help you can always contact the tour supervisor (your instructor).
The first BioTour, At the Travel Agency, focuses on introducing you to the course, processes of science, and the scientific method
