课程名称：全球北极 概述：全球北极MOOC课程介绍了全球变化与北极变化之间的动态关系。该课程旨在突出气候变化在极地地区的影响，并进一步强调温暖的北极对地球的影响。对人类文明而言，北极既是一个实验室，也是对人类的警示。此外，该课程还帮助学习者理解北极地区可持续发展的主要挑战和路径。 此课程的独特之处在于首次汇聚了多位全球专家，从不同学术角度和学科对北极进行全面评估，并分析其与地球其他部分的关系。最终，课程旨在全面提供理解北极如何反映人类及地质动态的钥匙。 课程大纲： 1. 课程介绍 - 描述：课程的基本信息和目标介绍。 2. 第一周 地球系统动态 - 描述：这一周将概述气候变化对北极的不同影响，同时评估温暖的北极对地球其他地区的影响。讲座还将探讨北极地区生物多样性的后果及污染的负面影响。 3. 第二周 北极资源及其探索 - 描述：第二周，讲师将介绍北极的各种资源，重点突出采矿、渔业等类型的资源和对新资源（包括旅游业和石油天然气）的争夺。 4. 第三周 北极形象与意义的演变 - 描述：第三周将探讨在人类世背景下，北极的历史认知。从维京时代的早期殖民到中国极地丝绸之路项目，讲座将引导您了解北极形象和重要性的演变与变革。 5. 第四周 北极的参与者与治理 - 描述：第四周的讲座将介绍塑造北极治理的不同利益相关者，整体强调北极与全球治理的相互依赖关系及其互动。 通过本课程，学习者将能够深入理解北极地区的复杂性及其在全球环境中的重要角色。
Name:Introduction to the MOOC
Description:
Name:WEEK 1 EARTH SYSTEM DYNAMICS
Description:This first week aims to overlook the different effects of the climate change in the Arctic. And vice-versa, we will introduce and evaluate the effects of a warmer Arctic on the rest of the planet. Besides, lectures will raise consequences on the biodiversity and negative outcomes with pollutants in the Arctic region.
Name:WEEK 2 Arctic resources and the quest for them
Description:In this second week, lecturers will expose various types of Arctic resources. Indeed, this week will highlight different resources exploited (fisheries, mining and so on) and the rush for new ones including tourism and O&G.
Name:WEEK 3 The evolving image and significance of the Arctic from early colonization to the ultimate industrial frontier
Description:This third week will tackle historical perception of the Arctic in the frame of the Anthropocene era. From early colonization under the Viking rule until the Chinese Polar Silk Road project, lectures will guide you through this evolving and transforming image and significance to the world.
Name:WEEK 4 Actors and governance in the Arctic
Description:Lectures in this fourth week will introduce the different stakeholders shaping the Arctic governance. Overall, lecturers will highlight the interdependency between the Arctic and the global governance and how it interact each other.
The GlobalArctic MOOC introduces you the dynamics between global changes and changes in the Arctic. This course aims to highlight the effects of climate change in the Polar region. In turn, it will underline the impacts of a warmer Arctic on the planet Earth. For human civilization, the Arctic stands both as a laboratory and a warning for human kind. Besides, this course gives course followers an understanding of the key challenges and pathways to sustainable development in the Arctic region. This course is unique as it gathers several world’s experts for the first time to speak about the Arctic. Their respective inputs from different academic perspectives and disciplines offer a relevant and complete assessment of the Arctic region and its connection to the rest of the planet. At the end of the day, the course intends to offer in full scope the keys to understanding as the Arctic plays as a mirror of the human and geological dynamics.
