Course Description
This course examines the diversity of Australian reptiles, amphibians, birds, and mammals (including all three mammalian lineages: monotremes, marsupials, and eutherian mammals). Students explore the unique anatomical, physiological, and behavioral adaptations that have enabled our wildlife to survive and thrive within varied Australian ecosystems. Students examine how the uniqueness of Australian wildlife becomes challenging when new threats are presented to the environment.

Course Description

This course examines chemical reactions involving various types of reactive intermediates. The application of molecular orbital theory will be used to understand the nature of pericyclic reactions and the concept of coordination in main group (including carbon) and transition metal elements. An investigation of inorganic reaction mechanisms will focus on transformations involving coordination and organometallic complexes of d-block metals. Discussion of synthetic aspects will cover methods for carbon-carbon bond formation and functional group transformations, as well as principles of catalysis involving transition metal complexes and their chemistry in synthetic and biological systems.

Course Description
This course introduces the study of human development, including a critical overview of current theory, research and practice in human development, with particular emphasis on the development of early childhood through to adolescence. A core assumption of the unit is that the study of human development is inter-disciplinary, and that developmental theories, past and present, are open to question and debate. The content focuses on the processes and products of human development, related to neurobiological, cognitive, emotional, social, cultural, and language development. The classical theories are considered and examined in the light of contemporary theory and research. The seminar is concerned with the teaching of values in schools and early childhood education settings, including the creation of values-based learning environments, and with each participant's development as a human self, focusing in particular on the development of participants' professional skills and personal values.

This course examines how sex and race influence the operation of social justice in everyday life. Students explore the origins of the concept of social justice in Plato’s REPUBLIC and other key texts. Additionally, the class discusses the emergence of international movements for social justice such as universal suffrage, the abolition of slavery, and the impact of social justice in contemporary culture. Students examine the key biological, social, political, and cultural factors that inform social justice in personal and sexual relationships; freedom of expression; equity in the workplace; health; social change; and the media in the 21st century. The class examines new developments in medicine, law, literature, film, and philosophy, and how globalization impacts issues of social justice. Students also examine the work of national and international organizations that attempt to improve the lives of those who face discrimination because they do not conform to the dominant norms of gender, race, and ethnicity.
