This week of lecture, we are actually having some introduction session since it is our first class with Dr. Parames. We introduced ourselves, one-by-one by telling our full name, origin and our Pre-U program that we came from.
Our first lecture was on Tuesday in Bilik Seminar 1.3. Dr. Parames introduced to us about the structure of the program for the whole semester. She also introduced to us briefly about Cellular and Developmental Biology course that will guide us to know more about the origin of life and supposed to master how to differentiate characteristics of various types of cells, organelles, basic physiological processes during plant and animal development.
Dr. Parames uses a very interactive way for us to study. She uses videos such as for this first lecture, she showed to us a video about Simpsons evolving from a pre-historic animal into the human. It was very funny but it shows to us briefly about what we are going to learn.
This week's lecture was mostly about evolution. We studied about Lamarck's Theory about giraffes with long necks and Darwin's Theory of Evolution.
It was very interesting to learn about these theories although as a Muslim, I am not supposed to believe in the theory, but Dr. Parames said that we need to put our believes aside and learn this theory in the view of a scientist.
Overall, it was a wonderful week. I like the way she taught us with some cheerful aura.
