Course Overview



Ever wondered where we came from and where we're going as a species? Have we halted the course of evolution in its tracks by dominating the animal kingdom as well as the world we live in? This course will answer both of these questions and give students great insight into the origins of Homo Sapiens and discuss and debate how two 'out of Africa' events of mass migration gave rise to Homo Sapiens. Starting with the theory of evolution, this course will then examine the evolution of humans as a species before investigating the human's closest relatives. Students will finally be able to discuss and debate in the final lesson the future of Homo Sapiens and where will humans go next.
