Nitrogen: A Global Challenge (Dari) from edX

این یک طوفان تمام‌عیار است. محدودیت و توزیع نا متوازن منابع غذا، آب و انرجی بین نفوس رو به رشد و حرارت جهانی وضع ناهنجاری پدید آورده است. در این چالش‌های جهانی، نایتروجن نقش مهمی دارد. در اینجا خواهید دید که نایتروجن چه پیوند عمیقی با تمدن‌های انسانی دارد و این ماده ممکن است در آینده در جایگاه ناجی آرام یا مایه فلاکت قرار بگیرد.

داستان نایتروجن از یک طرف عجیب و از طرف دیگر پیش ‌پا افتاده است. نایتروجن روایتگر سرخ شدن آب و کبود شدن انسان است. داستان نایتروجن حکایت دوستی با اقلیم، دشمنی با آلوده گی، فراوانی نعمت و ظهور قحطی است. اگر دیدگاه شما نسبت به نایتروجن همان گوشه تاریک جدول تناوبی است، اکنون باید مفکوره تان را تغییر دهید.

این کورس جدید، صرف ‌نظر از سابقه فکری شما، مفاهیم اصلی مربوط به نایتروجن و تغییرات جهانی را به شما تعلیم می‌دهد تا امکان شناخت بهتر چالش‌ها و فرصت‌های مربوط با نایتروجن فراهم شود. از موضوعات اصلی می‌توان به مصؤنیت غذایی، تغییرات اقلیمی، آلوده گی هوا، آلوده گی آب و حفظ‌الصحه انسانی اشاره کرد.

یادگیری را با رویکردهای تعلیمی تحسین شده گروپ تعلیمی پوهنتون ادینبورگ تجربه کنید. این کورس، رویکردی جذاب و علمی به چالش‌های جهانی نایتروجن دارد و نشان می‌دهد که چه ‌ قسم می‌توان تهدیدات نایتروجن برای تمدن انسانی را بهتر تشخیص و برطرف کرد.

این کورس بی‌سابقه که به وسیله استادان با تجربه (مدرسان با تجارب ده‌ها ساله) در عرصه تحقیقات نایتروجن و تغییرات جهانی ارائه می‌شود، حاصل همکاری کارشناسان برجسته بریتانیا و هند در «مرکز مجازی تولید نایتروجن نیوتن- بابا» است. در این کورس مجالس بحث به لسان انگلیسی با همکاری ابزار ترجمه نظارت می ګردند
