I haven't completed this course yet. Self pace and enjoying the lectures and videos. I've taken another Univ of Alberta course on Marine Reptiles which was great! I enjoy the Paleontol

Thank you for the opportunity to take this course! I like how closely the lectures follow the readings, and the interactive phylogenetic tree is a great visual learning tool!
