Dear all, as some of us finish up our academic year and others work toward completion over the next month, I want to congratulate you on your participation in our EcoTypes initiative for 2024-25. At present, the EcoTypes survey has been completed nearly 3500 times this year, with a publicly available data summary for you and students at bit.ly/ecotypes2425. 

Some of you requested your own (anonymized) 2024-25 data via group codes. I urge more of you to plan on this next year, so that you can readily compare your class(es) with others who completed the survey. Please check Instructor FAQ, or be in touch with me if questions.

I will be collaborating in June with colleagues at ESSCA in France, possibly looking into one demographic dimension of respondents that over the years has been intriguingly significant: gender identity. If you look at this reanalysis of 2023-24 data with our 2024-25 EcoTypes in mind, you'll see a set of qualitative tables that explore the significance of all EcoTypes demographics in explaining Place, Knowledge, and Action scores, and in addition to some obvious ones (e.g., political self-ID) gender plays a huge role, especially in Knowledge. 

Gender is something I mentioned in an early publication on EcoTypes, but have not explored more fully, and given the significance of gender in e.g. our current domestic and global political climate, it may be a useful way for you to launch discussions with students re. their differing EcoTypes results. 

I'll make sure to keep in touch with you on our research outcomes this summer, and please feel free to share with me prior to June any gender-related insights you and students have had, so that we might incorporate them into our research collaboration.

Thank you, and happy summer,

Jim
