The Ecological Society of America created the Strategies for Ecology Education, Diversity and Sustainability (SEEDS) program in order "to diversify and advance the ecology profession through opportunities that stimulate and nurture the interest of underrepresented students." As such, the site is a fine resource for science educators and others, and it contains seven basic sections, which include "Research", "Newsletter", and "Opportunities". In the "Opportunities" area, interested parties can find listings of student opportunities (such as funding), lists of relevant partnerships, and their career fair. The "Research" area includes material on the students who work with SEEDS, along with materials about how to get involved with one of their research experiences. Finally, the site is rounded out by the "Programs" area, which includes materials on local SEEDS chapters and field trips.
