Data literacy learning outcome
- Apply the concepts and terminology from biology to visualize and interpret data from experiments in biology
Content learning outcome
- Predict the environmental impacts of human activities on changing evolutionary and ecological processes
Social justice learning outcome
- Apply a social justice lens to promote both equity and innovation in the discipline of biology by reflecting on our own biases in how we perceive biological research and researchers
