SUMMARY:Online Course - Starts 2/26/23 - Fundamentals of Animal Behavior and Learning - IAABC (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:By the end of this course\, you will be able to: \n\nThink scientifically about animal training and behavior consulting for all species.\nBreak training into component principles.\nAnalyze environmental events that maintain behavior.\nRecognize how labels such as “aggressive” or “submissive” cloud your thinking and work.\nEstablish accurate descriptions of animals who are said to be “confident\,” “creative\,” “a problem solver\,” and how you should approach those learners.\nUnderstand the common principles at play in different animals & species.\nDirectly assess behavior and train more humanely and effectively by cutting through the jargon.\n\nDuration: 4 weeks \nInstructor: JoAnna Platzer\, B.Sc. & Dr. Erica Feuerbacher \n\nThis four-week course will begin on the specified start date. The first three weeks will explore the scope of the course. There will be no new content in the fourth week which is reserved for completing final projects\, discussion and synthesizing the course content. \nStudents will have access to the course for 1 year from the date of their most recent IAABC Foundation purchase. \n\n\nOnline Lectures: Each week there will be several short videos (10-20 minutes each; typically 60-90 minutes total per week) that will discuss the topics for that week. \n\n\nOnline Readings with Reading Guides: Each week you will have a scientific reading with a guide to help you navigate the reading. The paper will exemplify the principles being discussed that week. \n\n\nOnline Assignments: During Weeks 1-3\, you will have 1-2 short online assignments each week. Some of these will entail you giving an example and then giving feedback on examples provided by a few of your fellow students. \n\n\nOnline Posts: During Weeks 2-4 you will post two questions\, comments or reflections relevant to the material from the previous week to the discussion forum. You will also respond to at least two of your fellow students’ posts from that week (= a total of four posts per week). Your questions and responses will be graded based on their thoughtfulness and completeness. \n\n\nFinal Project: During Week 4\, you will complete a final project/paper in which you will synthesize the topics covered to cohesively analyze and scientifically critique publicly available training videos and handouts.1 \n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://iaabcfoundation.org/courses/fundamentals-of-animal-behavior-and-learning/
