Biodiversity Data Literacy Competencies - BLUE wants your thoughts!
Please consider joining this effort and completing this anonymous survey if you are in one or more of the following groups:
- Educators who teach and/or supervise undergraduate or graduate students in the biological sciences
- Organismal, ecological, and environmental researchers who generate and use large aggregated biodiversity datasets
- Discipline-based education researchers
- Data scientists and biodiversity informaticians
- Curators or researchers working with natural history collections
The survey should take you approximately 15-25 minutes to complete.
This is an initiative of the Biodiversity Literacy in Undergraduate Education Research Coordination Network (BLUE). BLUE is an inclusive community of biodiversity, data, and education researchers working to identify a transferrable set of core biodiversity data competencies for undergraduates, develop strategies for integrating these competencies into the introductory biology curriculum, and build capacity for sustained development and implementation of biodiversity and data literacy education.
Thank you in advance for your input and efforts.
