Learning Objectives Framework

We have begun working on our learning objectives. Leisa has created a google doc and added some learning objectives that were products of what we discussed in class. I have begun reading The Natural History of Medicinal Plants by Judith Sumner and it inspired me to add a few other LOs. These will be narrowed down to 4 LOs.
