I came across this resource while looking for new ways to approach population growth models in my introductory biology course. My comments here are going to focus on the richness of this resource. By richness I mean the breadth of materials it contains and the myriad ways that those materials could help me use it effectively. Like most teaching resources it has a basic description of the goals and activities of the lesson, but it also has lots more like descriptions of how it could be used with different student audiences, discussions of common student misconceptions and how to address them, assessment resources, and additional teaching notes for faculty. It will take some work to customize this for my course context but I feel like most of what I need is contained in this excellent and rich resource.
Has anyone used this? I'd be very interested to hear what you did with it.
