Check out the new four part mini-series on teaching that I put together for Making Waves! I had the pleasure of interviewing Whitney Beck, Amy Burgin, Cayelan Carey, Kait Farrell, and Michael Bogan about activities they've developed and used successfully in their classes.
Part 1: Whitney Beck describes a trophic ecology experiment she does with her aquatic ecology class.
Part 2: Amy Burgin talks about how she brings in current news topics in freshwater science to her classroom.
Part 3: Cayelan Carey and Kait Farrell discuss modules they've developed to introduce students to coding and working with large ecological datasets. You can find out more about Macrosystems EDDIE and Project EDDIE here: http://MacrosystemsEDDIE.org & http://ProjectEDDIE.org
Part 4: Michael Bogan shares how he introduces students to active learning starting on the first day of class.
