Course Objective

The objective of the course is to learn the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, the sources of natural radiation, how water and soil samples are taken in the land, how water and soil samples are prepared for measurement, how trace detector is placed in the land, and how measurement of radiation is done.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To say the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, the sources of natural radiation, how water and soil samples are taken in the land, how water and soil samples are prepared for measurement, how trace detector is placed in the land, and how measurement of radiation is done.
2   To comprehend the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, the sources of natural radiation, how water and soil samples are taken in the land, how water and soil samples are prepared for measurement, how trace detector is placed in the land, and how measurement of radiation is done.
3   To apply the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, to take water and soil samples in the land, to prepare water and soil samples for measurement, to place trace detector in the land, and to measure radiation in the land
4   To associate with events about nuclear physics the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, , the sources of natural radiation, to take water and soil samples in the land, to prepare water and soil samples for measurement, to place trace detector in the land, and to measure radiation in the land
5   To synthesize the law of radioactive decay, modeling radioactive decay, to take water and soil samples in the land, to prepare water and soil samples for measurement, to place trace dedector in the land, and to measure radiation in the land.
