География. Земля изнутри и снаружи from Coursera

«Зачем мне эта ваша география?» — спросишь ты. И правда: эпоха Великих географических открытий давно закончилась. На самом деле география объясняет, как устроена Земля, как расположены различные объекты на ней и какое значение это имеет для человека, а ещё благодаря географии можно прогнозировать многие явления. А главное — она нужна всем. Ещё Н.Н. Баранский говорил, что «география — мост между природой и обществом», и он был как никогда прав: она объединяет знания о земных оболочках и их обитателях. Ведь если ты хочешь изучать естественные (химия, физика, биология, геология) или общественные (история, социология, политология, экономика, антропология, регионоведение) науки, то без знания географии тебе не обойтись. Наш курс подойдёт тебе, если ты: • Школьник, и хочешь прокачать свои знания по географии (или сдать ЕГЭ, например); • Студент (причём необязательно географ, ты можешь учиться на любой естественнонаучной или гуманитарной специальности), и надеешься успешно сдать зачёт; • Просто интересуешься географией и хочешь блеснуть своими знаниями. Из курса «География. Земля изнутри и снаружи» ты узнаешь, как в современном мире происходят географические исследования и главное — зачем это делается; какие закономерности существуют в расположении материков и океанов и что из этого следует; почему климаты везде разные и где искать самый подходящий именно для тебя; какие бывают водные объекты на Земле; грозит ли человечеству экологическая катастрофа и о многом другом. Курс устроен очень просто и понятно: сначала мы расскажем тебе о том, что и как изучает география (спойлер: географическую оболочку Земли), а потом пройдёмся по каждой из геосфер: литосфере, атмосфере, гидросфере и биосфере. Ждём тебя на нашем увлекательном и интересном курсе! Проект реализован при финансовой поддержке Всероссийской общественной организации «Русское географическое общество»
