Pedagogical Use Description | This Data Set helps students develop a conceptual understanding of diversity while using their quantitative reasoning skills and data presentation techniques. Students use Microsoft Excel spread sheets, calculate and interpret diversity indices, present data using figures and tables, analyze their results, and critical thinking. Instructors can use this Data Set to give students some experience working with real ecological data and to explore species diversity in more depth than lecture usually allows. |
