Do your students actively explore data or use figures to investigate ecological issues? Are your students asking questions, making observations, and designing experiments in lab or field? Have you developed activities and experiments for your students to use? If so, then consider sharing your teaching resources with other ecology educators by contributing to TIEE: Teaching Issues and Experiments in Ecology, a project of the Committee on Diversity and Education of the Ecological Society of America (ESA).
TIEE is currently accepting submissions of issue-based activities and inquiry-based experiments. Visit http://tiee.esa.org/misc/submit.html for submission guidelines. Submissions will be peer-reviewed as they are received. Anticipated time between submission and initial decision is 6 weeks. Articles are published online as they are ready. TIEE Issues can be used in lecture (even in large classes), lab, and for homework. They focus on core ecological concepts and subjects plus "hot topics." Issues can be either datasets or figure sets TIEE Experiments are a collection of peer-reviewed laboratory activities. Each experiment is based upon student-active inquiry, and therefore they teach key ecological concepts as well as engaging students in the process of ecological research. Current volumes of TIEE can be accessed through http://tiee.esa.org and are also disseminated through ESA EcoEd Digital Library, www.esa.org/ecoed.
