Zoologi Invertebrata

 

Module title SBEP2019 Invertebrate Zoology
Semester(s) 3rd Semester
Person responsible Prof. Dr. M Ali S, M.Si.
Language Indonesian, English
Relation to curriculum Compulsory module for 3rd semester students. This course explores taxonomy, anatomy, and physiology of invertebrate animals
including major phyla such as Porifera, Cnidaria, Mollusca, Arthropoda, and Echinodermata. It supports CPL-1 and CPL-6 by
developing understanding of animal diversity, structure, and evolutionary adaptations. In line with ASIIN standards, the course
strengthens analytical and integrative thinking in linking morphology with function and ecological roles.
Teaching methods Lecture, inquiry approach, problem-based learning (PBL), blended learning, quiz, group discussion, team-based project
Workload 2 x 45 hours per semester, comprising:

✔ 100 minutes lecture and discussion per week
✔ 120 minutes structured tasks per week
✔ 120 minutes independent learning per week
Credit points 2 SKS = 3.34 ECTS (90 hours)
