Modules are often substantial sets of materials. Many of these were developed specifically for ethnobiology courses. Some of the modules can be shared without modification. Other modules provide hints, ideas and items which can be adapted for use.

These range from worksheets which can be used in laboratory exercises to video presentations that supplement or replace traditional lectures.
