Course Description

Sexual and asexual reproductive strategies of plants:

This course introduces students to the two main forms of plant

reproduction: sexual and asexual. Students will examine selected plants

and look for features associated with

sexual and asexual reproduction.

After completing the field lab, students will be able to:

1. Identify and describe the sexual reproductive mechanisms for various

plants.

2. Identify and describe asexual reproductive mechanisms for various

plants.

3. Identify and describe the advantages and disadvantages of each

approach as well as conditions that favor one over the other.

Course Description

Aerobic is a good tool to develop different

conditional skills, especially aerobic endurance

and strengths and to improve coordination.

The aim of the course is to give the theoretical and

practical knowledge of aerobic movements, type

of aerobics (basic aerobic, boxaerobic,

stepaerobic, etc.).

By the end of this course, the student will be able

to present aerobic lessons for different groups, to

use the basic aerobic movements in PE lessons

and in recreational sports.

Aerobic exercise refers to exercise which is of

relatively low intensity, undertaken for a long

duration. Aerobic means "with oxygen", and

refers to the use of oxygen in a muscle's energy-

generating process. Many types of exercise are

aerobic, and by definition are performed at

moderate levels of intensity for extended periods

as its modern and latest history, and to know the process of

its transformation into a race sport. Up-to-date problems of

race swimming.

The aim is that students know about the positive impact of

swimming on human organs, its role in personality

development and in forming healthy life style. They should

have an overall view on preventive and rehabilitative role of

swimming. They should get acquainted with swimming as a

recreational activity.

The main aim is to show the students the racing events of

water sports, furthermore, to study the theory of race

organisation, execution so that they can apply their

knowledge in practice.

Course Description The purpose of this subject is to show the revised ideas on space

and spatialities in consequence of the development of

communication, the spreading of technical civilisation and after

all the fulfillment of globalisation and to introduce into the

related research possibilities.

The aim of the course is to survey new problems and paradigms

about space implicated by globalisation. Economic geography

has to concentrate on a borderless hyper-market where the role of

computer-based communication is crucial. Beside globalisation

at micro-regional and local level localisation is an important

counter-process: the building and management of local identity.

The new word “glocalisation” (globlocalisation) comes from the

globalisation-localisation opposite concepts. The apparently

opposite concepts dissolve and harmonize as follows: Integration

into the global processes with the preservation of identity and

values accumulated up to the present.

Course Description

The Cisco CCNA Discovery curriculum provides general

networking theory, practical experience, and opportunities for career

exploration and soft-skills development. The curriculum teaches

networking based on application, covering networking concepts

within the context of network environments students may encounter

in their daily lives – from small office and home office (SOHO)

networking to more complex enterprise and theoretical networking

models later in the curriculum.

CCNA Discovery is designed for students with basic PC skills and

foundational math and problem solving skills. The curriculum offers

an engaging learning experience for more visual and kinetic

learners. Many interactive activities are embedded in all of the

courses to break up the text and help reinforce student

comprehension. In addition, a large number of labs encourage

additional hands-on practice.

CCNA Discovery can be delivered as an independent curriculum or

integrated into a broader course of study, such as technology or

continuing education programs. The curriculum is appropriate for

students at many education levels and types of institutions,

including high schools, secondary schools, universities, colleges,

career and technical schools, community organizations, and other

non-traditional learning environments.

CCNA Discovery helps prepare students for entry-level career

opportunities, continuing education, and globally-recognized Cisco

CCENT and CCNA certifications.
