Need A Study Break?


Here is a link to a video entitled "Queen of Trees" about the African sycamore fig tree and the animals that depend on it. It contains stunning videography and some really cool ecology as well.

Check it out when you need to take a short break.

Cool Video


Here is a link to a video sent to me by one of the students in my other class (thanks Briony). It uses a cool, dynamic graphical approach to examine changes in income, health, and population size in 200 countries over the past 200 years.
