AWR 201 builds upon the skills and concepts learned in AWR 101 by inviting students to examine their relation to the community and the world. It teaches the conventions and expectations of academic research writing, guiding students through their own extended research project. The course teaches project discovery, annotation of source materials, processes of drafting and revision, delivery of a polished final product that adheres to the standards of citation style, and conversion of the essay into a clear oral presentation for an audience of peers.

Explores the question, ''How did species of plants and animals end up where they are?'' The course focuses on the ways that millions of years of geological, oceanographic and climatic processes have directed the evolution of the earth's inhabitants. Topics include the general features of the earth's major biomes, the unique biotic features of the earth's major geographic regions, and the ways in which the study of biogeography has played an important role in the history of science. This course also examines the ways that our own species has been affected by, and continues to influence, the distribution of the planet's species. This is not applicable toward a biology or marine science major or minor. Lecture only.
