Have you ever looked at the night sky and wondered if we’re alone in the universe? If so, our new web course is for you! Physics 151<\/a>: Life in the Universe is debuting at UPEI for Fall 2015.<\/p>\n

In this course, your lessons are provided through the Habitable Worlds courseware – a textbook, movie, video game, lectures, and tutorials all combined in one package. You’ll use simulations to destroy stars, create planets, and explore the ancient Earth, all the while learning about the latest research on worlds within and outside of our solar system. You’ll discuss what you’re learning with your classmates through our forums and help each other learn how to identify which worlds are possible for life (as we know it) to exist on.<\/p>\n

There’s no prerequisites necessary for this course and it’s open to students from all programs and faculties. Check out the syllabus<\/a> and try a demo lesson<\/a> and if you like what you see, it’s not too late to register as there’s spaces available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
