BIOL 101L. Introductory Biology Laboratory
Lab, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Department of Biology, 2017
BIOL 101L is an introductory Biology lab designed for freshman undergraduate students who study Biology. It is an examination of the fundamental concepts in biology with emphasis on scientific inquiry. Biological systems will be analyzed through experimentation, dissection, and observation.
BIOL 278L. Animal Behavior Laboratory
Lab, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Department of Biology, 2018
BIOL 278L is a lab designed for sophomore and senior undergraduates study in Biology. It teaches techniques of observation and experiments in animal behavior. Students design or conduct experiments in guidance of their teaching assistants to study the behavior of various invertebrates and vertebrates throughout the course. Students also learn and perform statistical analysis methods, such as Student’s T-test, regression, and ANOVA, on the data they collected.
BIOL 692H. Senior Honors Thesis in Biology.
Undergraduate Course, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Department of Biology, 2019
BIOL 692H is a course designed senior and senior biology majors aiming for Honors and Highest Honors. In this course, students learn the preparation of a written and oral presentation of honors thesis research.
