Course description
Although animals can not show the humane language, we are able to understand what they think by observing their behavior in details. In this lecture, we try to understand their minds from actual observation.
Expected Learning
Learning how to approach their minds.
Course schedule
Firstly I teach ethology and methods for behavioral observation. Students perform the observation actually. Then the obtained data is statistically analyzed.
