Course
implementation
To date, Macrosystems EDDIE modules have been implemented and assessed
in life science courses at a wide range of higher education
institutions, ranging from small, primarily undergraduate institutions
to large, research-focused universities (Table S1; Carey et al. 2020,
Hounshell et al. 2021). Notably, as all materials are publicly
available, instructors can integrate modules into their curricula
independently of module developers. Below, we provide three examples of
courses in which Macrosystems EDDIE ecological forecasting modules have
been implemented (following Fig. 1). These examples were selected to
illustrate both the breadth of courses across which the modules have
been applied, as well as the various ways in which instructors choose to
adapt Macrosystems EDDIE ecological forecasting materials for their
classes. Institutional designations are provided following the Carnegie
Classification of Institutions of Higher Education
(https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/).
