This Click & Learn traces the flow of energy from the Sun all the way to cells within organisms. The embedded questions and calculations guide students’ understanding of how energy is distributed through a variety of ecosystems.

This interactive module allows students and educators to build models that explain how the Earth system works. The Click & Learn can be used to show how Earth is affected by human activities and natural phenomena.

This interactive module allows students to collect and analyze data from a virtual river to construct biomass and energy pyramids.

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 module explores how different animals — elephants, birds, and bats — have evolved distinct ways of using sound to communicate.

This interactive module explores examples of how changes in one species can affect species at other trophic levels and ultimately the entire ecosystem.

The added information provided at pause points within the animation How We Get Our Skin Color allows for a richer exploration of the topic of human skin structure and function.

This interactive module explores the circulatory systems of major vertebrate groups to gain insights into their evolution.

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

This interactive, modular lab explores techniques for identifying and recording the electrical activities of neurons, using the leech as a model organism.
