Hello Ecologers, =20 Do your students actively explore data or use figures to investigate ecological issues? Are your students asking questions, making observations, and designing experiments in the lab or field? Have you developed activities and experiments for your students to use? Have you investigated the use of quantitative or qualitative data, surveys, historical analyses, or case studies in the classroom? If so, consider sharing the products of your work with other ecology educators by contributing to TIEE. =20 I am pleased to announce that Teaching Issues and Experiments in Ecology (TIEE; http://tiee.ecoed.net <http://tiee.ecoed.net/> ) is seeking submissions of issue-based activities, inquiry-based experiments, and ecology education research for its sixth volume. The deadline for submissions is January 4th, 2008. Volume 6 will be published during the summer of 2008. Visit http://tiee.ecoed.net <http://tiee.ecoed.net/> to see previously published TIEE resources and submission guidelines. =20 If you have not developed your own activities or experiments (or are not submitting for this volume) but have used active pedagogy in your ecology courses, I invite you to become a reviewer.
