Acerca del Curso

This course explores animals within the context of the functional relationships that sociologists call “institutions.” We first examine the use of animals in laboratory science. We then examine the controversial transformation of animals into “livestock” and "meat." We also explore the perspectives of people committed to rejecting the construction and use of animals as food. Next, we focus on some of the roles of animals in human entertainment with particular attention to dog fighting and zoos. Finally, we investigate animal health and welfare through the lens of dilemmas in veterinary medicine and decisions in animal shelters....

I am taking this course along with two others in the specialization. The courses themselves are actually quite well done and informative. However, I have a huge issue with how these courses are structured. Specifically with the requirements for completion. Students are required to rely on other students in order to complete. Each course ends with a peer-reviewed assignment, meaning another student grades your work. That alone is dubious, but the real issue is having to wait for some random to get around to reviewing your work before you get any credit for completing. It doesn't matter that you did all the work and turned it in on time. I actually want to the certificates for these courses, and I resent having to rely on other students, most of whom are unreliable. I've been reviewing assignments that were submitted two years ago. That's not a good sign. Please change this.

I loved this course!!! I learnt a lot about animals and the ways to protect them. Everyone should take this course to know how we actually treat animals and what things we should do to change our habits. Thank you very much for the opportunity.

Content of the course is wonderful. It takes an extensive approach and gives you a very good view of different "global practices/ideas" involving animals.

Video quality can however be improved. Maybe consider including a few images during presentation.
