This web tool provides a quick and easy way of visualizing and analyzing data without advanced technological requirements.

This interactive module consists of a virtual Winogradsky column, which can be used to explore the diversity of microbes, microbial metabolic strategies, and geochemical gradients found in sediments.

This interactive simulation allows students to graph and analyze sample distributions taken from a normally distributed population.

A number of questions are embedded within the short film The Origin of Species: The Beak of the Finch, which explores four decades of research on the evolution of the Galápagos finches.

This interactive, modular lab explores the evolution of the anole lizards in the Caribbean through data collection and analysis.

This interactive module allows students to explore concepts related to speciation by identifying which birds belong to one of two finch species.

This interactive, modular lab explores how stickleback fish and fossil specimens are used to study evolutionary processes, with an emphasis on data collection and analysis.

This tutorial describes the symbiosis between the Hawaiian bobtail squid and bioluminescent bacteria.

This tutorial describes how bacteria communicate by a process known as quorum sensing, as shown through a series of experiments involving genetically engineered bioluminescent bacteria.

This tutorial explains how scientists analyze and interpret the large data sets generated by DNA microarrays.

This interactive, modular lab explores the techniques used to identify different types of bacteria based on their DNA sequences.

This playlist can be used to teach concepts in geology and evolution using mass extinction events. It can be used in general high school biology, environmental science, and earth science courses.
