In this activity, students use an interactive tool to simulate how scientists collected and used sample data to estimate elephant population sizes.

In this Click & Learn, students explore the process of digestion and how it connects to metabolism and cellular respiration. 

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

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.

Several questions are embedded within the short film The Making of the Fittest: Got Lactase? The Co-evolution of Genes and Culture, which explores the genetics of lactase persistence and evolution of the trait in some human populations.

A number of questions are embedded within the short film Popped Secret: The Mysterious Origin of Corn, which explores the genetic and archaeological evidence that corn was domesticated from a wild Mexican grass called teosinte.

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

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 various forms of “fat” — from a tissue, to a cell type, to a class of molecules.

This tutorial explores how fat is digested, transported, stored, and used for energy.
