About the Course

Evolution is one of the most interesting fields within biology, and one that’s central to a complete understanding of modern biology. We begin by tracing how Charles Darwin developed a theory of evolution by natural selection and the many ways that biologists have advanced the science of evolution since his lifetime. We then go on to learn about the many applications of evolutionary biology to our everyday lives....

I wasn't sure if I should take this course because I didn't love the first one in this specialization, but I'm so glad I did. The topic is fascinating and Dr. Solomon does a great job of providing more visuals than in the first class, with important information written out in a slideshow that makes it much easier to process and take notes. There are other helpful visuals as well, such as lots of pictures in the slideshow and videos in different locations. I've completed the specialization, and this was my favorite of the three courses. I highly recommend this course and specialization.

Taking this wonderfully lucid and logical course was a terrific experience. The course is easy, but you retain a lot of useful information and, importantly, a solid overall understanding of and good strong about evolution and its mechanisms. Prof. Scott Solomon does an admirable job. I look forward to taking his other Coursera courses.

Though introductory the presentation and discussion style is highly useful and intuitive that helps one to get a bigger picture.

Very informative and interesting, and as the name suggests, its an introduction, so it doesn't dive deep into the subject, since it would require previous knowledge on the matter from the students. I think its great for starters, since all the main ideas are clarified. I didn't do some assignements, since I was doing the "free" version. Yet, I answered all the questions and I do believe this course is very well done. I learned a lot, and I fully recommend it.
