I want you to be able to assess those issues critically and independently. Finally, It is my hope that the course will develop your appreciation toward natural sciences and to have a better understanding of how scientists think. The course will also give you an opportunity to improve both oral communication and writing skills that are applicable to other fields of study. You have the freedom to choose the topic for the review paper as long as it is dealing with earth science in business. You should be prepared to present one of the three articles in class to explain how the story is related to earth science.
Attendance is required and enforced.
You have many opportunities to receive individual counsel in this class. I will also be available during office hours to help you with problems and to answer questions. Or give me a call or email anytime. If you come to see me about general problems with the class, it is helpful if you bring your notes. An outline for my lecture and other helpful material will be available in a computer file at Bryant College computer server, and it will be updated weekly.
