| Skrócony opis: |
The main aim of the course is to provide students with a hands-on experience in several field research techniques used in the study of animal behaviour. The students will not only perform assigned tasks, but also take part in planning the work and analyzing results, so they can get used to assessing the suitability of different methods to answering particular research questions, identifying their advantages and drawbacks and possible sources of bias. The experimental methods will provide an opportunity to focus on control goups, on what makes (and what does not make) a good control in a particular experiment. The course should also show students how important it is to carefully note every detail of the work and its outcome, label all recordings and samples immediately etc. |
