I've decided to put a large portion of my conservation biology lectures online. They will be slightly less detailed than what I would normally do in class but I will make up for by extra readings. I asked a few of our graduates in graduate school what we were missing and one theme was reading and critiquing the peer-reviewed literature. So that will be part of the course that's for our students but not the public. By what not have public lectures. Maybe I'll get some good feedback.
As of 4/11 - first two lectures, lecture on threats to tropical forests
