TRUST RESPONSIBILITY
Human behaviour influences science Scientists are not Gods Things are rarely
black or white… …but a shade of greys
AWARENESS DISCUSSION REFLECTION
>70% rate the course as excellent or very good
eye –opening
an opportunity to know the experiences of other scientists
made me think about a lot of very important things I didn't know existed!
a good opportunity for reflection
fruitful, entertaining and knowledgeable
an enriching experience, I've been able to discuss on topics I haven't had the
chance to give my opinion elsewhere
I think it should be compulsory for undergraduates, too
very interactive and useful course
it was awesome!! :-)
gave me the opportunity to clarify doubts about science practice I always had and
never solved
Consider things that we don't usually think about. Great experience!
enlightening
entertaining and resourceful
makes you think about real life problems that you are not aware of during your
studying years
enlightening concepts and ideas that we roughly knew but not in depth
really interesting and necessary for
young researchers
Thank you!
