Lund University
Klimat, miljö och hälsa
Kursens övergripande syfte är att du som går kursen kommer att lära dig om och bättre förstå hur klimatförändringar påverkar vår hälsa. Kursen ger även relevanta kunskaper om orsaker till klimatförändringar och hur olika klimatmodeller används för att beskriva dessa. Dessutom syftar kursen också till att belysa hur klimatförändringar påverkar samhället ur många olika perspektiv. Kursen ger en bred grund till vidare arbete med klimatförändringar i olika sammanhang. Kursens innehåll är indelad i fyra olika moduler: Modul 1: Vad är klimat och klimatförändringar Här diskuteras och beskrivs den grundläggande vetenskapen bakom klimatförändringar. Det innebär att översiktligt förklara vad global uppvärmning och klimatförändring är – samt hur vi kan veta att jorden blir varmare och att klimatet förändras. Modul 2: Klimatförändringens effekter på hälsan Här diskuteras och beskrivs hur klimatförändringar påverkar hälsan, både på ett individuellt plan och på befolkningsnivå. Särskild betoning kommer ligga på extremväder och hur dessa påverkar människa och samhälle. Modul 3: Klimatförändringar och sjukdomar Här diskuteras och beskrivs hur klimatförändringar förändrar risken att bli sjuk i olika typer av sjukdomar, alltifrån icke-smittsamma sjukdomar såsom kardiovaskulär sjukdom och psykisk ohälsa – men också smittsamma sjukdomar som t ex vatten- och vektorburna sjukdomar kommer att förändras. Modul 4: Anpassningar och andra åtgärder för att begränsa klimatförändringarnas hälsopåverkan Här diskuteras de internationella ansträngningar som görs inom ramen för FN:s klimatkonvention samt andra initiativ på global, nationell och lokal nivå, men även de motverkande krafter som vill fördröja dessa ansträngningar. I modulen ligger fokus på hur vi i Sverige kan anpassa oss till en pågående klimatförändring för att begränsa negativa hälsokonsekvenser.

How to Become a Trusted Advisor with Jagdish Sheth
With the digitization of information, most expertise is now available online with search engines such as Google. Therefore, experts for hire for certified occupations such as law, medicine, and accounting are likely to be automated and commodified. As a result, one has to transition from an expert for hire to a trusted advisor. This course, taught by Professor Jagdish Sheth, 2020 Padma Bhushan Award winner for Literature and Education, is based on interviews with more than 30 CEOs and chairmans of very large enterprises with the goal of identifying attributes of a trusted advisor. We highlight 7 specific attributes of great advisors including integrity, empathy, selfless independence, and big picture thinking. The best trusted advisors are those who have experienced adversity in their own lives.

Introduction to Genetics and Evolution
Introduction to Genetics and Evolution is a college-level class being offered simultaneously to new students at Duke University. The course gives interested people a very basic overview of some principles behind these very fundamental areas of biology. We often hear about new "genome sequences," commercial kits that can tell you about your ancestry (including pre-human) from your DNA or disease predispositions, debates about the truth of evolution, why animals behave the way they do, and how people found "genetic evidence for natural selection." This course provides the basic biology you need to understand all of these issues better, tries to clarify some misconceptions, and tries to prepare students for future, more advanced coursework in Biology (and especially evolutionary genetics). No prior coursework is assumed.

微影人的自我修养
目前市面上有越来越多的微电影技术与流程方面的教程，通过它们你可以知道拍微电影大致的制作流程与技术，但这样你接触的只是微电影创作的皮毛。因为，拍微电影，从根本上说我们面对的是人：演员、工作人员、观众这些活生生的人，而人比机器要难把握多了。因此，微电影创作是一种独具风格、需要深入复杂人性与感受的深层次独立创作。 本课程授课教师本着“授人以鱼，不如授人以渔”的原则，直面现有微电影实践教学中“只重技术与流程、不重观念与思维”的普遍性问题，总结多年的创作体验和授课心得，将课程分为“亲临微电影创作现场” 、 “ 勤修微影人观念”、“勤养微电影思维” 的渐进式三大模块，通过项目创作和情境再现的直观形式，带你从了解微电影的拍摄与流程的实质开始，逐步深入微电影的剧本创意与写作、角色塑造、主题表达、叙事方式、风格形成等方面真正的要点与难点，让你真切领会到微电影的创作精髓； 同时，深入研究微电影与电影在本质上、创作上的异同，提炼出微电影创作人在“初心、情怀、风格、思维、结构、细节、人物、细节、流程”等各个方面所应具备的素质与观念，并引导微影人将这些微电影素养的培养作为长期的目标坚持下去，使它变成你的自身素养的一部分，促使你达到对客观世界与对象的更高境界的感受与把握。从而在这些扎实修养的基础之上，哪怕只给你一个手机，你也依然创作出独具魅力的微电影“大片”。 授课原则： 不讲某一个软件、某一个设备的具体的操作方法。 不讲非常完善的理论体系。（因为这些内容相关书籍或在线教程有很多，教师会在必要的时候给出相应的资料、教程链接以供补充学习与参考） 不提供技术词典。 专注从创作中得来的、接近创作本质的心得、体会、思考。 坚持在创作与思考不断提升自我修养。
