Dr. Jane Goodall Will Teach an Online Course About Conserving Our Environment

FYI: If you sign up for a Mas­ter­Class course by click­ing on the affil­i­ate links in this post, Open Cul­ture will receive a small fee that helps sup­port our oper­a­tion.

A quick heads up: The great pri­ma­tol­o­gist and anthro­pol­o­gist Dr. Jane Goodall–now 83 years old–will soon teach her first online course ever. Host­ed by Mas­ter­class, the course, con­sist­ing of 25 video lec­tures, will teach stu­dents how they can con­serve the envi­ron­ment. It will also share Goodal­l’s research on the behav­ioral pat­terns of chim­panzees and what they taught her about con­ser­va­tion. The course won’t get start­ed until this fall, but you can pre-enroll now. The cost is $90.

Oth­er cours­es cur­rent­ly offered by Mas­ter­class include:

• Wern­er Her­zog on Film­mak­ing
• David Mamet on Dra­mat­ic Writ­ing
• Steve Mar­tin on Com­e­dy
• Aaron Sorkin on Screen­writ­ing
