Season Premier: Earth as a dynamic system

Free Download What you'll learn
How did the Earth arrive at its present physical-chemical-biological state?
Basics of the origin, structure, composition and dynamics of Earth.
Understand the materials that make up our planet, and how they operate and interact in different processes.
We will focus on major events in Earth history as recognized in the rock record
Special emphasis is placed on the major steps in the evolutionary history of life
Requirements
Some background in the physical sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) is useful but not essential
Past coursework in Physical Geology is helpful
Description
This online training program is dedicated to sharing the knowledge, tools and resources you will need to change your perspective of our place in the Universe and to also have fun in an inquiry-based way.We call our online platform the Collaborative for Research in Origins (CRiO). Indeed, it is collaborative, but it is also credible, creative and loaded with online content from a real researcher.Prof. Dr. Stephen MojzsisWho teaches the courses?The CRiO online training program is exclusively offered to you by Prof. Dr. Stephen Mojzsis, a leading geologist, educator, writer and researcher.Besides his active engagement in research and publication of scientific results, he is a science communicator.His outreach activities include numerous television interviews and documentaries such as the PBS programs Nova, H2O-the molecule that made us, Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman, as well many others in the US, UK, France, Canada, Japan and elsewhere in the world.He regularly participates in research lectures at professional conferences and workshops, and holds public presentations throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.Research from his laboratory group and collaborators is regularly published in professional journals including Nature, Science, the Astrophysical Journal, Earth and Planetary Science Letters, Astrobiology, Lithos and many others.Is the CRiO online training program right for me?Is your passion to acquire better scientific knowledge of the natural world? To gain a firmer grasp of new research as it unfolds? To understand what these discoveries actually mean? Or perhaps even to get advice on how to navigate the difference between the mythological world view and the scientific world view?Whether you're an ambitious beginner, budding scientist, active researcher, armchair enthusiast, retiree, consultant or artist of life, the CRiO online institute offers you the credible content you have been looking for. CRiO does this without the irrelevant bells and whistles and philosophical arguments, and gets right to what matters in the subject.Why join? 4 reasons why the CRiO online training program is the best choice for You:CURIOUS: We are here because we desire to seek out and share knowledge just for the pleasure of doing so. People like you who are curious about science do this because they want to know the answers to the mysteries of the natural world.CREDIBLE: Credibility in science is based on the method-based investment of working towards a reliable and testable picture of how the universe works. Ingenuity, experience, and perception are decisive in this endeavor, but there is no substitute for meticulous effort and healthy skepticism.CREATIVE: Science creates in ways that differ from the humanities and its disciplines art, music, and literature. These are inspired toward innovation by using imagination to portray the real or imagined. Scientists instead build explanations by linking together bits of information in a way that makes sense - to construct what are known as theories - that have the power to predictively guide our search for more. Science and Art are complementary, but intrinsically different in world view. A talented and balanced individual learns to embrace both.CUTTING EDGE: We strive to be at the leading edge of ideas by harnessing our creativity via credible sources, that feed our curiosity to know more.What you will learnWhat is the origin, structure, composition and dynamics of the Earth? What is the chemical make-up of the materials that compose the planet, their mechanical properties and how they operate and interact in different processes (e.g. weathering, denudation, plate tectonics, volcanism, metamorphism, etc.) over millions of years to yield the planet we know today?
