Module 14: Human Evolution
Looking back, I am amazed by how much I have learned in the last few months and how much I still must learn about evolution. Starting the course, I could only define evolution, and today I can confidently state evidence supporting evolution. Like many other science courses I have taken thus far, the material we covered supports the ideas that the process of science is iterative, the process of science is not predetermined, and there are many routes into the process. Science circles back on itself so that useful ideas are built upon and used to learn even more about the natural world. This often means that successive investigations of a topic lead back to the same question, but at deeper and deeper levels. I appreciate the fact I can do some coding and going forward I will be using R for statistical and data analysis. Thank you for a great semester.
