Dear Colleagues,

We are compiling a resource for undergraduate evolutionary biology
education. One of the first places students engage with evolutionary
biology in-depth is in undergraduate courses, and evolutionary concepts
can be confusing and difficult to grasp at this early stage. Furthermore,
to facilitate a deeper understanding of evolutionary concepts within
our classrooms and research community, it is important to address how
exclusionary systems influenced foundational work in our disciplines,
and how it continues to shape the way we study the natural world.

We know that many members of our community have already developed
fantastic teaching materials, and our goal is to create a central
repository of resources for inclusive undergraduate evolution
education. We will share resources on this database monthly:
https://tinyurl.com/inclevoedu. If you have any resources to share, we
would greatly appreciate it. Please contribute resources and teaching
materials by filling out a short Google form (should take <5 minutes
to complete): https://forms.gle/Sjn9V3oezas9e8tG6. Please contact
inclusiv...@gmail.com with any questions, suggestions, or if you'd
like to contribute further to this effort.

Please forward this message to your networks.

Thank you!
