Lab 1: Introductions Discussion

• 

  Posted by Francesca Lingo on February 8, 2021 at 4:36 pm

  Welcome to EAS 106: Fundamentals of Earth System Science! 

  Before we get started with the course it’s important to get to know the members of your lab group. You will create your post in the CUNY Academic Commons group to which you were invited by your lab instructor.

  For your introductory post, please provide the following information:

  1. Tell us your name, pronouns, and, if you have a nickname, let us know what you like to go by.
  2. Tell us what your major is, or what areas of study you are interested in pursuing.
  3. If you feel comfortable, tell us a little about where you are from and any hobbies that you enjoy.
  4. Tell us what you hope to get out of this class and how you hope it will help you in your future college courses.
  5. Share a photo or description of a geologic, hydrologic, or atmospheric feature, process, or environment that interests you. Tell us what you would like to learn about the topic you have chosen.

  Once you have created your post, respond to at least two of your classmates in your group. See if there are others who have the same interests as you or who have posted something that you find interesting. Let’s all talk a little as we get started!

  A word about Etiquette: 

  When posting replies, please be considerate of your peers. The discussion is intended to promote a collaborative learning environment, so be careful of your tone and refrain from inappropriate language or personal attacks. You may challenge others if the intent is to facilitate growth, but do not demand, harass, or embarrass. Encourage others to develop and share their ideas.

  Hi Everyone! I am Sadman Shawraz. I am a Senior in Biochemistry with EAS minor. I am in this course since it is required for the minor. Furthermore, I chose EAS minor to solidify my background knowledge on the environment of the Earth, because in the future, or right from now on, in any form of technological or scientific development understanding its impact on the Earth’s environment and ecosystem is important.

  The picture that I have attached, is a photo of our blue planet from the surface of the moon, a single picture portraying our small piece of blue spaceship cruising through the black nothingness of space, the only place we have, with no other option.
