EVOLUTION IN ACTION

Evolution in Action is developed together with ecologists, evolutionary biologists and art educators. We combine science, art-based methods, action-based teaching, games and storytelling to ensure learning about biodiversity and evolutionary processes. The material links with the new Finnish Science curriculum and phenomena based education. We create freely available, teaching materials (under the terms of CreativeCommons-licence) to equip educators to teach evolutionary processes. You can read more about our team here... The Evolution in Action project was founded in 2017 by a group of scientists in the Department of Biological and Environmental Science at the University of Jyväskylä in Finland. It was initially funded by an ESEB Outreach Initiative grant and we are currently funded by Tieteen tiedotus ry and Kone Foundation. In 2019 we started collaborating with artists and art educators, and are currently working on workshops combining art and science supported by Kone Foundation..
