Conceptual Framework for Teaching Continental-Scale Ecology

This webpage, created by the Ecological Society of America, details a framework for using continental-scale data in undergraduate ecology teaching and learning. An understanding of external drivers, ecological responses, human behaviors, and the "mediating interactions between external drivers and internal responses and feedback" inform the concept of using continental-scale data in undergraduate ecology curriculum. Desired learning outcomes are detailed in full on the webpage. This framework is also available in an interactive format; a link to this format is available at the bottom of the webpage. Additionally, a link to download the Education Using Continental-Scale Data Concept Map at a Glance is provided in both .pdf and .jpeg formats.
