collaborative problem solving. The course will focus on helping participants develop the conceptual understanding, the analytical tools, and the practical skills of conflict or situation assessment, convening and facilitation, process design, joint fact-finding,
applications of decision support tools, visioning and other public engagement strategies. Taught by a collaborative team of University of Arizona faculty and community practitioners, the course will be open to university students, faculty and staff, as well
as agency and community practitioners. The learning approach will emphasize the introduction of basic principles, lessons, and tools, hands on skill-building exercises, case scenarios and group problem-solving sessions, and practitioner case clinics. The course
also includes a one-day field visit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">In this course we address fundamental knowledge that supports the study and appreciation of plants in their natural environments. Emphasis is placed on species found in the southwestern United
States. The course begins with the fundamental elements of plant growth, development, physiology, and reproduction. Using this foundation, we then cover plant identification and taxonomy, and how environmental factors affect plant growth, distribution, and
assemblage into communities. We conclude with a consideration of roles played by plants in ecological processes and how human-driven processes affect these processes. RNR 230R is open to students in all majors and is a core course in the Natural Resources
undergraduate curriculum in the School of Natural Resources & the Environment<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Many of the world’s biological "hot spots", as well as some of the most critically threatened ecosystems are in developing nations and are in the greatest need for biological research. In
this course, students will be able to step out of the classroom and into the real world to experience first-hand the critical role that field biologists play in conservation. Students will be introduced to novel ecosystems and exposed to conservation issues
faced by developing nations. Students will use the local environment as a laboratory to learn field research techniques and methodology. For students interested in the biological sciences, conducting field research "in situ" is invaluable in their professional
development. The opportunity to visit a foreign country and be exposed to a different culture and environment can be a life changing experience. The objective of this course is to provide that experience in the context of biological research and the development
of conservation professionals.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
